I can't flash my head lights ? PLEASE HELP

I have a 76 911 and the head lights will not flash from low to high? Is there a relay that controlls this function? I can see a relay socket just behind the turn signal relay. Is there a relay missing. Just to make it clear I can go from high to low beams by moving the switch, (forward=high beam) pull back and I have low beam. But if I pull the switch back towards the wheel to flash the high beams nothing happens.

I hope that you guys can understand what I'm talking about
Any help would be great

Sounds like the stalk switch has gone kaput. Don't bother trying to fix your old switch...if you're going to the trouble of removing it, replace it with a new one from our host.

I had the same problem and bothered to fix it. There's nothing magical about these switches, so if you have a basic understanding of electricity its actually a pretty easy fix. I posted a thread with pictures here :Turn signal switch repair.

If you're not the electrical repair type, then buying a new one is probably the safest bet. Almost a year later, and my repaired switch is still fine.
