Electrical Turn Signal Problem?

I had a turn signal problem today that has me baffled. I lifted the turn signal lever to signal a right turn, but no blinking or clicker noise. Tried it several times, then tried to drop the signal lever just to see what happens. It blinked and clicked a RIGHT turn instead of a left turn! Kept messing with this for a while, and said a few choice words thinking I had a real elecrtrical problem.

Decided to pull off the road, turn off the engine, start it up, and try again. It worked perfectly!

What is happening?

I had the same problem on my 05 1500 and the dealer replaced the switch mechinism and it fixxed the issue. I traded the truck in and got an SRT-10.

Funny this thread popped up, I had the exact same thing happen on Saturday. Turn left, blinked right! It's been working fine for the last couple of days but I guess it's a good time to bring it in because I still need to have two recalls taken care of (ABS Module and Tank Vent). This is the first problem I had since I bought it in January, drove over 23,000 miles since then.
