Getting the Wheeling Fever

It is most definitely related to the Hazard switch.I removed the switch (one ball came out, but where was its original position?) And cleaned up the posts which were corroded, and reassembled. The left blinker works, the right goes on but does not flash. I just replaced all the bulbs yesterday, so I don't know if one went bad already or if it's something with the switch.
I know I saw a thread on how to rebuild these switches but I've done a site and Google search and cannot find it. Can someone point me in the right direction please? Thanks!

Woah, my mistake, so sorry about that. I should have typed Two Prong flasher. You can see it on the far right with green and red wires coming out of it. I actually salvaged that thing once. Took it apart and cleaned it up. Then re installed it.
That fixed it for years until I went LED bulbs.

Thank you both so much! I must not have been using the proper search words. Any ideas why my rightside will light up stationary but not flash?

Never run into this problem on our 89, but when the 87 signals refuse to blink, I tighten the alternator belt a little. Works every time.
Oh, and disassembly of that little switch is best done inside a sandwich bag. You won't lose the springs and balls when they go flying.

I've never had a vehicle that required adjustment of the alternator belt, they've all had idlers. Can you describe how to tighten it, and by how much I should tighten it?

Damn...
I forgot the 3.0 has a serpentine belt. My apologies. I was referring to my 87 2.6.

No worries I just got it all fixed. The bulb in the front passengers side wasn't seating properly. It was in there but not making sufficient contact. I added some dielectric and seated it properly, and now it all works great!
I appreciate everyone's help!
