I have a 1979 California harness in my car, which may make a difference.
1. Tracing the green circuit from the fusebox made more sense - you're
right, that's just the power feed to the turn signals. I took the switch
out of the circuit and shorted these two sockets and I had turn signals.
I checked continuity at the switch, pins 7 and 8, and it was there. I
checked continuity between pin 3 and pins 1&2 - none when the switch is
off, and continuity when the switch is on. so I cleaned the contacts
again, and bingo, it worked!
2. I don't have a light green/purple wire. The Hazards flash the in-dash
repeaters (via green/red and green/white)
Thanks for your help! :)

Chris,
Your description of the circuit follows my circuit with two exceptions:
1: Pin 8 (I think it is pin 8) is a green wire that feeds the reverse
light switch (how weird is this?) -- This wire goes from the pin 8 to
Pin 6
of the Fuse Box. And from Pin 6 of the Fuse Box to the reverse light
switch.
This should be normal power to the turn signals. It is switched powered.
The other side of the fuse (Pin 5) should be a white wire to Pin 2 of
the
Ignition Switch. You should have power here when the ignition switch is
turned on.
2. The only other thing you didn't describe off the flasher switch is
the
Light Green Purple wire which goes to the Hazard warning light.
