Turn signals don't work sometimes

Check the bulbs. If a bulb is burned out the signal may blick quickly, or not at all. Check the flasher. Try left/right/emergency to see if any will work. If one works, but not the other, I'd guess a burned out bulb. Last but not least is the switch in the column has gotten dirty or corroded. Try some spray contact cleaner with an applicator straw right into the opening where the turn signal stalk comes out before you tear into it, which is a pain.
