Default Constant turn signal click PLEASE HELP

The sound of the turn signal can be heard even though the signal itself is off. It sounds as if it's coming from the glove box area, but i have no clue. The only times it stops is when the brake is pressed or when the fuse is pulled. When you put the fuse back in and turn the car on, it immediately starts up. Is there a wiring problem, or something else? Please help as this is VERY annoying.

Mine does the same same thing. I belive its a faulty mulitfunction switch. if you search for that you can find other posts about it.

Trying the ways has the same effect as the brakelight. Cuts it out, but the moment you switch back, it's there again.

What is it that you are working on here? Need atleast year to properly diagnose. It could be the difference between just replacing the Hazard switch and replacing the full multifunction switch.

This topic has been discussed many times before in the past. Try running a search for a post entitled "Clicking in the dash" or something to that affect.

I had the same thing. I replaced the relayt and now it is fine. It is located behind the glove box. To fold the door all the way down there is a small metal loop in the top left corner that you have to lift up on. The relay is down in the bottom right corner. Hope this helps.
