the “tick tock” noise is the turn signal flasher module, but what is all of the other random ticking that occurs when I turn the steering wheel with the turn signal on?

This is the mechanism inside of the steering column that is activated to allow the steering shaft cam to trip the mechanism. Not only does this mechanism add unnecessary noise, but it also alters the tactile feedback of the vehicle steering system because you can actually feel the ticking. With all of the noise related improvements engineered into vehicles lately, the six decade old turn signal mechanism suddenly sounds loud in comparison. INTELLITURN has absolutely no noise or tactile interference at the steering wheel when the turn signal is on. Steering feel and noise remain superb with or without turn signals on.
