I think this problem was solved and also documented really well with a procedure and photos at the website:

The problem is caused by a small amount of grease inside the turn signal lever slowly flowing over time between the electrical contacts inside the turn signal - intermittently shorts-out the headlights or parking light switches causing them to flicker on and off. Cheaper than buying a new Multifunction switch is to open the existing one and just wipe away the excess grease.

google "multifunction switch" -- basically, it's a buildup of grease in the housing of your turn signal stalk which activates the circuit and makes that clicking sound even when the signal is off. The fix-it solution is to open the housing and clean the grease off the contacts.

How do you replace the turn signal switch located on a 1996 Oldsmobile Cutlass?
You have to pull the steering wheel...which means you have to disable the air bag, which means you should take it in. However, check all your bulbs first to make sure none are burnt out. Double bulbs in the rear lights need BOTH be working. Also, your turn signal flasher is located under the dash just beside your brake pedal (under the felt cowl, not the hazard flasher by the e-brake). Replace it if need be first. You can pop the little plastic face plate off your steering column by pushing the tab in front of the signal/cruise/wiper stem and get access to clean the turn signal contacts with canned air or a tiny (interdental) brush. This may clear up your problem. It did mine and I really hope to save you grief.
