Default weird fog light problem

hi all, I got a weird problem with my fog lights, they only turn on when the switch is in the middle position (between on and off) and when I have my turn signals on they also sometimes blink. any suggestions on what can be wrong?

Usual problem. Smack the tip of the turn switch at the top a few times, should be good as new :]

I meant the fog lights blink not the turn signals. Also, why is that it only works in the middle position? How can I fix this?
