Could be as C/L gives indicator power elsewhere, it could be a short between switch and light. Do the hazards work?

Then it's almost certain the live for the right indicator has a leak to earth causing the short. Not sure on that car where alarm wiring is for indicators most likely to be spliced into the lives if it's not done by an electronic module so I would start at the indicator stalk and go from there.
