Press the stick, so the top stays in the "in" position ie cruise, then flick it towards the speedo, ie back...(disengage) Try it again - the MIL lamp should be out btw

Just a thought... Does it happen when you are driving??? If not... And I know this sounds sexist... BUT she is using the cruise stalk instead of the indicator....

I did it myself a couple of times when I first got thee car....
