Replacing turn signal switch 2008 250R

My turn signals are intermittently not working. Turn on the switch and they may/may not work, AND it is getting worse. Someone in another thread mentioned corrosion in the switch and bulb housings. Dielectric grease is easy enough in the housings, but how do I get to the switch? Also, if the switch is bad, how do I replace it? I cannot seem to locate the part online.

Try something like this:

If you're good with your hands, you can disassemble switch and lightly sand corrosion off contact areas. Be careful of little spring size of grain of rice.

Otherwise look in junkyards or call around. You can also use left-hand controls from another bike. Looks identical to stuff off '90s CBR600s.
