This is very inexpensive and easy fix for any S-series vehicle from 1995 and up.
All you need is a pair of needle nose pliers (or leatherman) and a replacement hazard switch.
A replacement hazard switch can be purchased at www.parts4chevys.com for under $20.00 shipped, or at GM dealership for under $12.00
The GM part number for the switch is 15174447.
It goes by the name "SW KIT HAZARD"
chances are you had some ghetto setup like this to keep your hazard lights from constantly flashing.
The switch is broken half-way off in the socket
Grab the edge of the switch and just yank it out. You may have to wiggle the plastic housing to get the broken switch completely out.
The new switch and whats left of the old one.
If there's any little pieces of plasic or other debris in the empty socket, now is the time to get it out.
This kit comes comes with a small tube of dielectric grease. Coat the lower section of the switch.

Insert the new switch and you're done. Much cheaper than purchasing a new assembly.
