turn signal not cancelling

My right turn signal does not automatically cancel after a right turn.

Anyone know what usually breaks?
Is it a spring or the whole switch?

Is it hard to get to them? do I need a steering wheel puller?

TIA

I believe that there is a cam that cancels the turn signal.

Check out this video. It may help.

Here is another link that may also be of help.

Thanks MrJames, a very informative post.

More tools than I have in my apartment, I'll have to wait until I move and unload my PODS full of tools.

Thanks again.

P.S. the second video shows the turn signal when he is reassembling.
