Two problems with my recently purchased w203

I have a mercedes c240 04' and currently have two known problem

First problem: The right turn indicator when I flip the switch up getting ready to make a right turn, turns on for two seconds then by itself turns flips back down therefore turning off and I havent even made a right turn, what's causing this problem?
*Left turn indicator works fine


Second problem: I just added washer fluid liquid to my car but when I push in knob for fluid to appear nothing happens no liquid is being dispersed....

THE C350
Well you probably will have to replace the turn signal stock/assembly it is available at your favorite Mercedes parts store for no to much money. As for the washer fluid it is probably the stalk as well as it uses the same stalk but you could test the washer pump in the left front fender by feeding it power and see if it works as well as if the wire is putting out power

I have a 03 c230k and have the same problems. It seems these are common problems. I suggest doing what samaritrey has stated. Pretty easy fix from what I gather....

make sure you get the correct year part. the connections are diff for 10-02,03=04, 05 06, don't use patrs geek they send the wronf parts and it takes 2 months to get refund.you have to ntake of steering wheel with t30 torx , then you have to take of wheel from hub, #8 allen bolt, use extension it is tough, take off steering wheel clock speed thingy very carefully, if u mess it up your esp will trun of, you have to take off the shroud from bottom of wheel another torx skrew, look on youtube, good details

Have similar problem with windshield wiper. Doesn't work when switched on. Washer fluid, same deal. Only works when high beams are on Seems to be electrical but not sure.
