Default Turn signal disasembly

The Been fighting with this turn signal for years, if I jiggle it it starts working for a little while. Don't see any way to get it apart. Ready to force it! Don't know if it makes a difference but it's the single element 1156.

Looks like pull the rubber and the reflector should be able to remove exposing the socket.

try a new bulb. sometimes the lead post in the middle of the bulb gets squashed down over the years and it doesn't make good contact there. or try to squeeze the socket some so the bulb doesn't wiggle around in there.
