    The mechanism gets clagged up over time with this sort of symptom. You can replace the assembly - pretty cheap from UK on line suppliers - or take apart and give a good clean which apparently fixes. I replaced mine.

    Fixining it is not always that easy. You can take apart the switch and mechanism, but often some plastic components inside will show some wear, hence I'd strongly recommend to replace the unit. I had my light stalk switch fail once and "repaired" it, it lasted just until the replacement part had arrived and I could swap the whole stuff which solved the problem.
