Default 2001 turn signal doesn't work sometimes

Sometimes works, never know when it won't. Comes back to normal within minutes. Any ideas?

Cycle the e-flasher switch on and off about 100 times and see if that helps.

Since evenyone else suggested the hazard switch which was my first thought as well, I'll add my two cents worth to possibly a filament dying in one of the lamps.. forward or rear. There is a possibility that the filament will break, but bounce onto the broken edge and start working again briefly. I've also heard of people with lamp sockets that are getting burned or dirty.
