Default Turn Signals Not Working

Hello everyone,

I have a 1997 s10 Blazer 4x4 LT and the turn signals are not working. When I press the turn signal one way or the other I hear no audible clicks from the flashers and the indicators do not go. All fuses are fine and I know the problem is not the flashers because I switched the hazard and turn signal flashers and I was still getting the audible clicks from the hazards but not the turn signals. With the hazards on, they are only blinking in the back, not the front. All 4 amber indicator/parking bulbs are working properly. With the brake pressed in, if i were to put the turn signal to the left, the left brake light turns off, and same with the right side. I fear that I may have accidentally pulled out a wire that I shouldn't have as I began to have these symptoms after I was doing some work with the dashboard and steering column covers removed. This may be a separate issue but I saw two wires connected to a plastic connector inside the steering column located between the ignition and steering wheel. The wires are green/white and black. Here is a pic of them:
I have been looking around for quite a while and can't seem to find where they connect to.

Thanks for any and all help you can provide me with!

After a bit more research I found that it seems to be my hazard switch. I am ordering one right now from amazon
Robot Check Robot Check
Will update once I receive part.

I had this same issue when I bought my 97 blazer ls behind the bottom part of the dash behind the cigarette lighter there are 2 different "flasher" relays the one on the left is your hazards and the one on the right is turn signals switch em and your turn signals will start working but will no longer have hazards the parts is $4 at advanced auto parts

Turns out my problem was not in the relays. It was the actual hazard switch itself. I got one from a Jimmy at a pick and pull. Super easy to take out and replace... here is a video I found to show how its done.
