Not sure, but I THINK this is normal. I have to admit that I've always found
this circuit to be confusing, so I have no idea how to explain it. ;-)
It is normal, and it is because of the internal circuits of the hazard
light switch. but I cant explain further without taking a lot of time
studying the wiring diagrams.
Basically, it has to do with the internal circuits of the hazard light
switch, and the fact that the turn signal indicator light (in the fuel
guage) has constant power with the ignition on, and is grounded through
the turn signal bulb filaments.
