The signals and hazards use different flashers because they run different numbers of bulbs. The most likely suspect is the signal flasher. There's a fuse for that circuit too, so don't overlook that. If it is blown, suspect a problem with one of the front signals. The rear ones use the same bulbs as the brake lights, and if there was a short on the rear, the brake light fuse would have blown and you wouldn't have brake lights either.
