your gonna need to find the hazard flasher.look in the owners manual for a location.its the one that has green stripes and the signal flasher has yellow.

Is the signal flasher the same as a blinker relay? BC I already switched that out with a new 1.an why do I need to find the hazard flasher when the hazards work
