Hazard light not working

I noticed today that nothing happens when I press the hazard light switch on the top of the speedometer. It looks like there is no fuse that controls it. I'm guessing it is a loose connection. Any thoughts on where I should start troubleshooting?

Is it new enough for the dealer to look it over?
Do your normal turn signals work?

Unfortunately, she's a 2007 so she's not under warranty anymore. The turn signals are both working (now)...I recently had a loose connection in the pigtail of the rear passenger turn signal but I was able to fix it by reseating the connection after pulling off the rear light housing.

if the signals are working it is probably a loose connection. Do you know if anyone has done any stereo modifications to the car. If so then the switch is probably disconnected.

Not and easy thing to get to as you have to remove a bunch of the dash to get to it.
