The next time it gives you a problem, try pressing and releasing the emergency flasher button a dozen times or so. That will wipe the contacts clean inside the switch and if the flasher is the problem, it will most of the time fix it.

Mine started out that way too, at first I could mess with the emergency flasher button and the turn signals would work. Then I had to move it more and more. Finally, they quit working all together. So I finally had time to replace it. I documented the whole method here:

This is using the 'easy' method where you can do it through the radio hole.
