Turn signals blink when turning left but not right

A strange issue just started happening. My turn signal works fine and blinks when turning left. However, it stopped blinking for a right turn...unless I put additional pressure on the switch. If I can get the blinker started most of the time it stays on as I am turning right. Has anyone else run into this? How do I fix it?

 

Thanks,

I'm having the same problem with one of my cars and I traced it to the Turn Signal Switch which has brass contacts inside which wear out over time and no longer make contact. Here is a Link to a DIY Repair.
