My daughter called from college.. her '93 300E has started to buzzzz
when she uses the turn signals.. she says the signal wand feels Ok,
but
there is a buzzing from the steering column/dash when using them..

Any ideas what this may be ? She's 600 miles away now with the car
so its not easy to help out.

Thanks!

Roy

Could happen if one issues turn signals by opening the doors with head
lights on;-)

I'd guess it is the relay for the turn signal going bad. Or a speaker
wire has somehow crossed into the turn signal system. I'd have to hear
where the buzzing is coming from.

Try changing the turn signal relay first. It is cheap, and probably
easy enough for her to do since it just plugs in somewhere. The trick
is finding where.

Good luck!
