Sorry to be redundant.....
Sorry to post the same problem twice, but i found someone with the EXACT same problem but described it better. Maybe it will clarify a little bit
"Hi....... the emergency flashers works, so I know the bulbs are okay...but suddenly today my turn signals are not flashing, and I don;t even see the indicator lights on the dash nor do I hear the usual "click-click-click" when the turn signal switch is in position. My first idea is to check the fuse for the circuit. If the fuse is okay, what should I check next?"

I hate to bug you with this again, but now my signals work......kinda. When play with the lever and dont pull it all the way down/up i can make them work for a couple of seconds. I checked everything that was mentioned, and those things were all ok. Could it be the lever itself? Please help...I need to pass inspection

Combo switches/cancel cams do go out. The chances of a short to power is rare. Short to ground would blow a fuse.
R&R that switch in the column, or if in doubt, get one at a junkyard for cheap $, and that way you know how to tear into one- so you don't damage yours when you go to fix it.

I already had the S. wheel off and could see cams turning but I don't think the left is getting a good connection, but I will check all the bulbs.. when I flip the left or neutral position the right indicator comes on but no flashing, and only with the headlights on as well.. thinking it might be a nightmare
