Lightbulb Turn signal problems?

So my blinkers have stopped working. It all started about a month ago, they would work and then all of a sudden they wouldn't blink... the light would just stay on. The next time I turned off/on my car, they would work again.
Lately they just work for a few seconds after I turn on the car.
The hazard switch works ok, I mean, the lights do blink when I turn them on.

I've read in the forums that if could be the signal stalk or the hazard switch, some people say that cleaning it/them sometimes solves the problem, but how do I do that? any pictures?

What do you guys think the problem could be?

Thanks!

funny, I just resurrected a thread that was a couple months old about this as I am having the same problem.

the problem is most likely your hazard switch which also houses the blinker relay. they sell new ones on ecs for $30.

Is this what you're talking about?

I read somewhere on this forum that sometimes it'll work correctly if you clean it well... I'll try it and see if it works!
