C36 Turn signals won't shut off??

Hello all,

Just got home and my passenger side turn signals won't shut off in the front and back? Fuse? Any ideas?

Thanks

Nevermind...so my headlights switch was not in the straight up off position which caused this. New Mercedes owner here...how weird that this was the reason!

Maybe I'm confused and don't understand but what does the headlight switch positioning have to do with the signal light application?

Hey MrBobby,
See attached pic of headlight switch. Now I'm no car technician, but I've never owned a car that had parking lights for one side or the other. I had the switch just to the left of the center "off" position is what happened.

Is this a N.A. car? If I'm understanding you, you would have no signal lights at night because the light switch is in a "non upright" position. Makes no sense to me.
