Help! How can I get my hazard lights off?

On my 06 RT I turn on the flashers by thumbing both turn signal switchs at the same time. I cancel them by hitting either turn signal then hit the cancel switch

Hey Rotten:
I have a 1996 R1100RS, I believe all oilheads up to 2004 are very similar but...
If yours is the same as mine, the flasher unit is inside the fuse box, center row, far right(biggest module in the box).
If you remove it, you will have no turn signals(perhaps a lesser evil than full time hazards).
The unit accepts 4 inputs:
Left turn.
Right turn.
Turn signal cancel.
Hazard.
I'm not sure what would cause it to behave this way but I would clean the flasher unit connector contacts, and the hazard switch contacts, before replacing the flasher unit.
