Do your hazards still work? Does messing with the hazard switch allow the brake lights to work?

You could try just replacing the hazard switch alone which is MUCH easier and MUCH more economical than replacing the entire multifunction switch.

The hazard flasher is not the same thing as the hazard switch. The hazard switch is what you push on top of the steering column. It pulls out with a simple pair of pliers.

The switch itself is available separately.
