It's normal for the turn signals not to work when the hazard switch is closed. That's how the multi-function switch works.

The hazards use a separate flasher from the directionals. The directional flasher is the one you can see in the fuse box when you remove the cover. The hazard flasher is directly behind it, installed from the other side of the fuse box. It's a TIGHT fit, but you can get your hand up in there and remove it. Try replacing that first. This is, of course, assuming you've already checked and ruled out the fuse.....
