I think that you have a bad flasher unit try replacing that.
There is a turn signal relay that should be changed prior to changing a switch. The flasher is located in the front seating area, driver side, under dash, above fuse block, mounted on kick panel. If you need wiring diagrams or anything else, let me know.
If the relay is having an internal issue with it's circuitry, it will act this way. What is being refered to as earth are your ground connections. These are any wires that are bare and bolted to the frame, fender, pillars, or any other metal component that will act as a circuit completion from the battery and that's why the battery ground(or black cable) is attatched to the engine or frame(both actually).

Hi,
I always trace the earth in cases like this.
Check vehicle chassis earth points for corrosion. The only effective way to do this is undo them, use abrasive (cloth, tape, paper), apply a smear of grease and remake the connection.
Find the indicator relay - unplug and plug in again.
Check wiring for any faults with a multimeter, checking with the bulbs out for a short, and in for continuity.
Replace the relay if it appears faulty.
