FWIW - The hazards only come on when the switch is in the 'out' position. The 'in' position is the off position. I don't know about jumpering the wires - I believe most of the electrical systems in the car go through that switch. I'd check the flasher first. Watch for my article on rebuilding your hazard switch in an upcoming POCA/PCNC Newsletter (I'll post it on my website at that time too).
Cheers!
