RE: Turn signal module always clicking....
I would double check at the dealer if you have an open 'campaign' on your vin# for this issue. Some did-it would only take a phone call or a visit-I've had a few customers with the 'lucky' vin# and got theirs repalced for free. Worth a try. jp

I wanted to update this thread for future search results. I swapped my multifunction switch and the problem went away with the new switch.
I had two difficulties in this job... one, the top panel of the steering column is held on by a reverse torx screw which i got off with a 5/32 socket once i found it(it's on the ignition side of the panel, underneath. The next challenging part was the second torx screw holding the switch in place. It's so close to the steering wheel i didn't have anythign small enough to get in there with a torx bit to get it out. I ended up taking a big vice grip and pinching the torx bit in really tight to basically act as a wrench... it was slow going but it worked! Now that i've done the job, i would say top to bottom including removing all the panels i could do it in about 1/2 hour.

I get that ticking too but its some how tied into the red light above my CD player. When i unlock my door it starts and usually just goes off after awhile. Whats the red flashing lights function and would a hazard switch fix the flashing and clicking?

Did you read everything in this 15 month old thread? The part numbers are listed. The parts are readily available on a number of online stores that ship internationally. Replacing the hazard switch would be the the "different way".
A quick search would have turned up Taymacjack's Broken Hazard Switch Repair DIY article in the Tech Article (DIY) section.
