I was driving tonight and took a left turn and now my left blinker wont shut off no matter what (emberassing as hell) So I just disconnected the fuse for now so I have no blinkers. What is causing this and how hard is it to fix?
 
Just make sure you keep turning left, all the time. ROFL
But seriously, the cancelling cam inside the column prob broke.
 
Lol the same thing happened to me. I hated it. I finally put my hazards on for a week so people wouldnt try to let me merge and people kept telling me that my hazards were on and i was like yeah.. i know. But just order a new blinker unit off ebay and replace it. They are made with crappy plastic and break easily. I dont use my blinker anymore and if i do I just hold it down a little so it doesnt lock so i wont have that problem again. Its really simple if you just get in there and mess with it. I replaced mine and i knew absolutely nothing about cars. Just start taking it apart and youll see whats broken and what needs to be replaced.
 
i repaired mine, there is a little pin that broke off inside the mechanism, i ground it down all the way and just made a new one out of metal and glued it in. Been good for over 6 months now:)
 
Anyways I replaced the turn signal switch and all is good now. Thanks for all the help everyone.
