On a 1971-1973 the brake signal from the brake switch does NOT go
through any Hazard switch contacts. It only goes through the turn signal switch.
I agree that the issue will be found in the turn switch. These are easy to take apart, clean and re-lube.

Note the Brown/Orange jumper wire is what allows the brake signal to go to BOTH rear lights.
