Hi,

The signal has a Nub (for lack of a better word) which prottrudes from the switch. This Nub contacts an eccentric on the column which acts against it and this is what cancels the Turn Indicator. It is made of Nylon or Poly. It may have worn or broken. Another possibility is that the column switch clamp may have loosened and the switches shifted to the point where they can no longer contact the eccentric (the Switch-to-Column tip has a spec distance of 55mm). Before anything else, I would try to tighten the clamp (accessible through a hole in the bottom of the column trim.) It is a 5mm? Hex nut I believe. If you find it loose, I'd remove the Steering wheel and reset the proper distance described above. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
