Indicator lever failing

[frozen]

So I've had this issue a while now, my indicator jams when trying to indicate turning right. I have to physically hold it down quite firmly for it to work, otherwise it makes a bzzzzzz sound which resembles the normal indicator clicking sound but so rapid that it's a continuous buzz.

I haven't gone to pull it all open yet but has anyone else faced this issue and/or have any pointers for me and things to look for?

Thanks

I don't know if they are the same, but in the 3rd gen magnas the buzzing indicator is often somehow actually caused by the hazard light button, fixing it can range from a few firm taps to removing it and cleaning the contacts.

Audis do this too, the relay was in the hazard switch. But the falling relay killed the stalk so often both would need to be replaced. ...

Josh, I had this exact same issue before..

unfortunately the fix is to replace the stalk (is that what it's called?)

I would still try tapping the hazard button a few times before I bought a replacement, just for curiosity's sake if nothing else.
