Reading pwns you, did you not get the other part of the thread Einstein? Hold on, let me bold it for you just in case.
You might have a short on the turn signal wire, which is probable, but my guess would be you might have a turn signal stalk that has gone bad, how about the wipers do they work fine? If not then the stalk is definetly bad.
Now read that part, and go from there, when you figured out that it is or is not shorted out then come back and maybe we can help further.
