Michael,
 
It the indicator arm is clicking when it hits the cam lobe on the steering  
column and the signals continue to flash, can you cancel the signals by 
manually  moving the indicator lever?  If you're not moving and you move the  
indicator lever for, let's say a right turn, then move the indicator back to  
"off" position (all without turning the steering wheel) does the signal 
stop  flashing?  If the answers to these questions are yes it sounds like  
either the steering column cam lobe is worn or not fitted correctly or the cogs 
 
on the indicator switch aren't really making a firm contact with the cam  
lobe...maybe because the indicator lever is missing a fastening screw or is  
simply loose??

I have  checked the cam and it is in place and I hear a click when it passes
the  spring loaded cams on the indicator  unit.
