Hazard Light Switch Stuck

[Gregski]

I pushed in the hazard button/switch in, and now I can't pull it back out, and return it to normal, even though the hazards are not blinking.

Now when I step on the brake pedal both turn signal indicators light up on my dash simultaneously and the turn signal indicators no longer flash on the dash either when i try to use the turn signals, (not sure if the turn signals actually work themselves, probably need to check on that)
