Best way is if you know the year/ make/ model the column came out of then go find that documentation.
Otherwise make a truth table
Is the hazard switch integrated into the switch? If so make a truth table, take a continuity checker and go to work
What will be inputs:
1.....Switched brake power. This comes from the brake light switch and goes into the TS switch
2.....Turn signal flasher power. this comes from the TS flasher and goes into the TS switch
3......Hazard flasher power. This comes from the hazard flasher and goes into the TS switch
Outputs.

A......Front left turn
B......Front right turn
C......Rear left turn (and brake)
D......Rear right turn (and brake)
The above is true IF IF the car had integrated stop / turn and not the separate rear dedicated turn signals and rear dedicated stop signals
"Less wires will be present"
So Now start the process of elimination
With the switch centered, the switch will pass
Brake light switch to left rear and right rear. So with switch centered find out what three wires show continuity. Temporarily mark them.
"I believe" that in hazard, ALL wires will be continuous to ALL OTHER wires EXCEPT for the turn signal flasher. "I think" If so, this means you can put the thing in hazard, and figure out which wire is not continuous, and that one is your EDIT turn flasher wire
Now turn the switch to "left". What will now be continuous is two different sets
The brake light wire will pass power to the right rear lamp
The flasher wire will connect to left front and left rear
Now turn switch to the "right" and the opposite side will be continuous from the above situation
By paying attention to what you "have" you can eliminate wires one by one.
For example, both left and right switch will only have one group of 4 wires which generate continuity to three of them........flasher to left front and left rear, and flasher to right front and right rear
When you get those groups sorted, you can tell which is rear and front, because the fronts will never have power to the brake line.
It "might be" that one way to do this is to randomly mark the wires with tape tags simply 1-2-3-4 etc before you start, and just write down what is continuous to what as you go.
Righteous help right there!
