I returned home from jury duty yesterday afternoon to find that the right turn signal was flashing on my '82 300TD. Presuming that my wife must've bumped the stalk, I went to turn it off but the stalk was in the neutral position and manipulating it made no difference. An important piece of information is that it was also raining very hard.
So...what's the cause?
'05 Jeep Liberty CRD - 160k
'06.5 VW Jetta TDI - 230k
'82 MB 300TD - 116k (motor going to raysorenson)
'81 MB 300TD - 195k (parting out)
'71 Jeep DJ5 - diesel conversion project
Put your detective hat on!

Nice body, tons of ridiculous mechanical issues - 300d turbo 82' /motor 85'
I know the hazard switch is in the same circuit. One time I had no function of the turn signals and discovered that the hazard switch was somewhere between on and off.
