With key off, turn on the hazzards. Ammeter should should repreated slight discharge from the battery.
All four corners outside the car should be blinking. Both indicators on the instrument panel should be blinking.
A few years the indicators were on the fenders - doubt that's your case.

Then compare to when engine is running and the turn signals are switched on.
Also compare with parking lights on. Many years/models the same lamp is used for several functions (two filaments).
