Flashing brights when signaling right

[JohnM.]

Now that my 300E has finally hit 20 years old, and it's getting closer to that 200,000mi mark, it's starting to have those fun, old car issues.

This evening whenever I signaled right, the brights would come on. Quite embarrassing. If I just hold the blinker with my pinky and don't fully engage it ....the brights don't come on. But the minute I signal full right, the brights come on. I assume I will need a new stalk?
