If your switch is the round type (vs the rocker type), it has a short flat side 
on the circumference.  I used this flat side as a reference point and looking 
at the switch from the back (connection) side I numbered the pins clockwise 
from 1 to 7 with 8 being the center pin.  The number 1 pin is on the left edge 
of the flat spot.  It looks like your wires are the same colors as mine so here 
goes:

	Hazard Switch Pin	Wire Color		Connection on Car
	1 			Y			Flasher
	2 (R)			LB/BK			Ground	
	3 (30)			G			Fuse #8
	4 (15)			R			Fuse #12
	5 (L or 7)		LB			Turn Lamp
	6			P/BK			Flasher
	7			Y			Flasher	
	8 (31)			BK			Turn Lamp

Some of the pins have raised labels on the switch itself.  I included those in 
parentheses next to my home made pin numbers just to confuse you.  Also the two 
yellow wires are tied together in the wiring harness directly behind the 
switch.  One turns the hazard switch center light on dimly when the switch is 
off (normal) and the other turns the center light on brightly (and flashing) 
when the hazard flashers are engaged.  You can disconnect the yellow wire on 
pin 1 if you don't want the hazard bulb to burn when the switch position is off 
(it is sort of annoyingly bright at night and doesn't dim with the dash light 
reostat).

Good luck with it.

Hi All,

Just went through the archives knowing there was a thread on the wire
connections for the hazard switch but can't find it. Does anyone have the
correct color to number dia? My switch  is SAE QC 72 DKS - E  My wires are
G,Y,LB,B, R, P/B, Y/B, LB/B. The cars is a 73.

Thanks,
