turn signal problem

I have never been able to "click" the turn signal lever on my 1978 F-100 in order to make the signals work. Instead I just hold the lever either up or down and then they blink as they should.

However lately when I hold down the lever (for left) the left rear bulb just lights up but does not blink. (The front left does the same, lights but no blink.)

I swapped the left rear bulb for another (not a new one) but I get the same action - left bulb burns but no blinking.

Tail light lights up, brake light lights up, but turn just burns.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
CB3
