I signal left with the turn signal but the right turn signal activates. It happens about 30% of the time. Gathering information to correct it now. From the boards it appears it is the multi-function switch.

I have a 2005 Dodge Ram. The turn signal started to signal opposite of the direction selected. Even though this is a common problem in this truck there is no safety recall and I had to pay $188 to fix it at the dealer.
