    OK, so I have a 2007 T600 and the right front turn signals are stuck On. The arrow on the dash is also on. The lights and arrow are on even with the truck turned off. The left side is fine and the rear left and right also are working normally. I have disconnected all the turn signals, checked and changed the pigtail (corroded but fixed),checked fuses and still no change. The arrow on the dash and the lights go of if I pull the fuse. I'm getting constant power to the right turn signals and the pigtail. I can't find the relay or anything else that pertains to the turn signals in the dash looked all day.. ‍♂️ please Help

    If your fuse panel is located behind the clutch pedal area, I'd lean towards a short in behind the fuse panel, causing the turn signal circuit to power up before the fuse. Could pop out the other fuses one at a time to try and narrow down what circuit might be the culprit. May even have to take the fuse panel out and check in behind it to see if any wires have rubbed through.

    @Goodysnap @spsauerland any other ideas?

    I can't help you with fixing the turn signal...see the post above for such advice, they know what their talking about. Anyhow...

    You will til you get it fixed be the one person on the road who uses their turn signal all the time, downside...your also going to be the ####### who has his blinker on for 70 miles and hasn't turned yet.

    :)

    Just think, you will make people happy, and want to kill you, all at the same time.

    Humor, it makes everything better, including stuck turn signals.

    Does the light and indicator go out when you unplug the turn signal switch?

    Without testing my money is on a shorted/ stuck contacts in side the turn stalk.

    I have the fuse box open and looking in the back for anything that could be loose or touching.
