Maybe if your battery was that low when you hit the 4ways it killed it. But that would be odd IMO. Are the 4ways the only thing you turned on before it died?

i might: start it again and turn on the headlights instead (of hazzards). see if it dies. if so, the electrical load is what is killing it, not the hazzards (happy coincidence). i can not think of any reason why hazards should kill the car, unless there is some massive short on that circuit.

good luck.
