It's probably the Flux Capacitor.... Just joking.... LOL

Are you sure the noise is coming from the switch itself and not something near by? I had a signal flasher go on the blink one time and it made a buzzing noise...

no it does not spike everything is normal that i can tell. I really dont want to take it to the dealer to find out what's wrong, i know it's something simple but just cant pin point it.

Well that proves that it is the flasher. You said you have replaced it a couple of times. Have you tried a different manufacture?

Are you getting it from Ford? sometimes other manufacturers list their parts was being compatible when in fact that is not the case... If you remove the flasher and it goes away it must be the flasher...
