Hazard lights inoperative

Right, from the top.

Carling hazard switch fitted, indicators work, hazards don't. 12v at green when ignition is on, 12v at purple when ignition is switched on or off

When switching hazards on, indicators stop working.

Removed the green and the light green wires from the switch, indicators don't work at all. Removing any or all of the other wires has no effect at all on the indiocators

Connected green to light green through a fuse and not via the switch. Indicators work and hazards work, but hazards only work when the ignition is switched on. 

Connected light green pin to the fuse holder where the green and light green are connected, hazards work with the ignition off, but the oil pressure, hand brake warning and charging light come on as well

Any thoughts chaps, please? MoT on Tuesday and this is the first time I have tried using the hazards since the test last year

Start fault finding with this thread https://forums.lr4x4.com/topic/25376-hazard-switch-indicators-fault-diagnosis/

but I suspect a dirty switch as the first thing to look at, as it's had almost no use for 12 months.

Thank you for the suggestion Ralph. Turned out to be the flasher unit. Removed it, accidentally dropped it, refitted it and all was restored

accidentally on purpose  glad it was a cheap fix.
