Default Help with hazards!! Fuse name?

So I have my 08 Enthusiast opened up (including the hidden 3rd fuse box) and can't seem to find a fuse that controls the hazard lights. When I push the hazard switch nothing happens. Turn signals, brake lights and running/headlights all seem to be working fine. Does anyone know if there is a specific fuse that conrols the hazards?? Thanks!

According to the '07 service manual section LT, the hazard switch contacts are connected to pin 29 of the body control module and ground. There is no fuse specifically for the hazard light function.

You have several possible problems: Bad switch, loose connection, bad ground, damaged wiring, or a bad BCM.

Does the switch light up when you turn the other lights on?

There's an LED in the hazard switch that should light up the little red triangle when you turn the headlights on (so you can find the switch in the dark). If it's not coming on, the connector on the switch is probably loose.

There's a page in section LT that shows how to remove the plastic finisher it's mounted in to get to the switch and disconnect the connector. From there you should be able to troubleshoot the switch itself, and check the ground, etc.
