Default Turning signal click after hazard replacement

Hey everyone, so i had the annoying relay click from my turning signals without doing anything. I originally thought it could have been the relay, it wasn't. So i read and some guys pointed out that the hazard switch could have been a failure. Since it was cheap I went for it. With both of those parts replaced it still clicks. But now its only when I don't apply pressure to the brake. Before it did it no matter what I did. Anyone have any idea if there is something wrong with the electronics with the brake pedal, such as a short or a switch that failed or the whole multifunction switch needs replacement. Also is there any way to troubleshoot these things before I buy anything. I did the small diagnostic for the hazard switch with similar answers to what was posted, but either I was wrong or two things failed at once. Thanks for the help.

If replacing the hazard switch alone did not stop the relay from clicking, the problem is deeper into the multifunction switch. Common problem.

Im probably going to try to take the switch apart hopefully find something. Do you think its worth it, or a waste of my time, and even if i fix it, it wont last long?
