You have a short somewhere in the wiring and you’re going to have to spend some time tracking it down. If you have an ohm meter and know how to use it this shouldn’t be too difficult to figure out.

Sounds like a bad ground that is back feeding through th hazards when they are on .
Inspect grounds , and give your rear light fixtures a good look over.

I spread apart all the main wiring harness to look for damage and I couldnt find any thing and I found out that the hazard fuse blows instantly when plugged but when I un plug the multi function switch it doesn't blow I looked at the real harness it looks good but I unplugged it to make sure and it still done it any pointers or anything
