I have a 02 Malibu and the turn signals keep clicking after they are off. It will do this for several minutes or when I move the stealing wheel or even hit a bump. Anyone had this problems and know how to fix it? I want to fix on my own. Help please!
Try locating and replacing the flasher. On the older models it was under the dash. On yours it's probably in the fuse box, which is probably behind a panel on the left side of the dash. Lid is held on with Velcro. Flasher will be marked as such, will be big and silver as opposed to color coded as the rest of the fuses. It's a cheap and easy first try. The other thing could be the Neopreme switch attached to your turn signal stalk. Could have the detents broken off of it. Go with the flasher first, and good luck!
SOURCE: Clicking noise in front after hitting smaller bumps
it is the front strut i am a certified mechanic i have changed many of these
SOURCE: 1999 alero the front end makes noise like the wheel bearing or
if its clicking when you turn the wheal, then its a cv joint. If its making a bump bump bump noise as you go down the road and increases with speed and slows with speed then its probably a bering, It sounds like you have hit something and caused your ball joints to damage. take a board 2x4 about 2 foot long. jack up the car in the front, just enough to fit the board under the tires. At each tire lift the board and see if you have any movement in the wheal. The movement you are looking for will be up and down, not side to side. Your steering moves side to side. Your ball joints give you limited up and down rotation movement to allow your car to handle bumps. If its in access of an inch rotation then there is your problem. Depending on the car, I would probably look at salvage yards first then go to the part store and compare prices. Because some junk yards are chaging near new prices for used stuff. Also your struts may be shot also.

Kemo68 90% of the time when the turn signal keeps clicking as your driving down the road. Turn signal and hazard switch if located in the dash. The hazard switch & turn signal are on that switch together in dash. $18.00 for switch and dealer will tell you this is a comom thing that happens in the Malibu. That fixed mine the first time.

The problem could be caused by a wheel bearing squeeling or the cv joint squeeling.

To diagnose: Does the clicking resume to normal when the turn signal or hazrds on? Then:
Multi function switch is damaged.(seems to be common) This unit consists of the two control arms(turn signals and wiper control) on either side of the steering column. It is easily replaced. Cost, app. 200 from GM or 160 aftermarket. GM product is TRW assembled in Mexico. Aftermarket is made in Taiwan. Firstly:
Disconnect battery.
There are 3 #20 Torx screws under the steering column shroud. Remove them and carefully separate shroud and remove. It takes a bit to worm the shroud around the column tilt lever. I didn't check but you may not even have to remove the lower section.
There is 1 #20 torx screw on top holding the MFS in place. It also has 2 guide pins on the bottom. Remove the screw and disconnect the 3 electrical pin connectors. Now remove and replace with new unit. I did notice the steel pin that operates the horn(it pushes in and out and sits against a rotating plate in front of the steering wheel) was a bit rough so I smoothed it out with a small file. Now put everything back in place.
Anyway, that should take care of the clicking. It worked for me. rough so I smoothed it out with a small file. Now put everything back
in place.
