First thing to do is check the light bulbs. Try swapping them with the right ones. If the problem follows the light bulbs they,or one of them, are burnt out.

What do you mean by "the indicator stayed on"?

Is the indicator on constantly, or blinking?

When does it come on? Is it on all time when the ignition is on or only when you hit the turn signal button? And which switch do you hit to cause it to turn one?
