The relay is under the steering column cowling, connected to the steering column itself. I don't think that would be your problem, though, as it sends the signal for the emergency flashers as well. My money would be on the switch as well.

relay is fine, switch is fine, hazard switch was not. the hazard switch was being pushed on but not enough to turn them on. i took it apart and cleaned it but i looked and the piece that it mounts onto was broken, but now if they dont work i can wiggle it to get them on until i replace that mounting piece.
