Turn signal blinks continuously

Hi, I have a problem with my 'Turn signal (indicator)' in the dash board. the Left one blinks continuously as therefore do all my exterior turn signals.

Has anyone heard or experienced this kind of problem.

Thanks for reading and trying to help out.

i haven't ever experienced this, but did you try checking the relays and fuses? or resetting the computer?

Hi Hitman, I've not changed any bulbs myself or the mechanics.
So surely it can't be that, could it?

Thanks for your help though.

Thanks for all your replies.

Just to add a bit more info... The car was in the garage a few weeks ago with an ignition problem. They replaced that but said that the SRS sensors have come on and had to replace two of them.
Since then a couple of the electronic diplays look to be malfunctioning. i.e the LED for the temperature & the Gear LED's are not showing fully.

So could there be a bigger problem than just the tur siganl. Could it be a loose wire or something?

Thanks guys.
