To simplify this I'm no long going to talk about the pig tail...just the main wire harness as seen in the picture.
Just for reference though, pig tail colors to main harness Orange to main is thick black- ground Lt blue to main is red- LED in OEM button turns on when headlights turn on Black to main is grey- ground Green to main is pink- when this wire is grounded at any time (car on or off) the hazards come on. Ok, pink and grey go together and the hazards work but no LED. Black and red go together and I get the bright LED but no hazards. I take it this is it? I either get a LED or I get the hazards which of course I want. Any other configuration I do, I either get a dim LED or a bright LED except if I do pink and red together I get hazards but again no LED.

Yep. With that switch, you can't have your cake and eat it too.
The problem is that you are working with a sinking circuit and most switch/light combos are meant to switch power to a device. That's why Nissan used a four terminal switch/light.

Lol gotcha. And FYI I have to do grey and pink to prongs 2 and 3. Using the actually ground prong for the switch (number 1) doesn't work. Now off to do the s-mode. I'm thinking using 2 and 3 again and the middle two wires will do it, I hope.

I don't remember looking at the S-Mode circuit, but if it's another sinking input then wire it the same as the flasher. The S-Mode switch may be momentary contact instead of the NO switch you are using.

**** I know it is. The OEM hazard looses height when you press it down till you press it again. The s-mode stays same height no matter what. Looks like I need to swap that switch. And looking online those only have 2 prong switches.
