Couple of more parts bikes of which 2 more will live!
mine dont work either. maybe someone else will chime in about your (and mine) problem... but seems for you you have a bad connection somewhere. go through the connections and clean them well and then check your grounds as well. after that if they still dont work maybe flasher?

Also if you have the 4 ways, the switch for those can have the solder joints come apart and cause exactly that type of problem. If it's the problem you can open up the switch and you will find loose wires, just clean up the connectors and solder them all back on (and likely do this with ALL of them even if they seem ok) and put it back together and if you did it right everything will be fine again.

Unless the parts are physically broken, you can repair the OEM switch. There are several contact points that get corroded and a few solder points that may need to be re-soldered. Once you get it apart and cleaned, lube it with dielectric grease, and it should work just fine.
Of course, if you are just gonna toss the OEM switch, I'd be happy to take it off your hands!
