Sticking (or possibly just normally operating) relay i'd say.
Take top off fuse box and feel with a fingertip each relay whilst the noise is happening. You should find it. Then check your handbook and see what this relay does :-)

Does the noise stop at all when you fiddle with the indicator stalk?
I had this problem of ticking noise sounding like indicators and it was the stalk.
Got a new one and it has been fine for the past three years now.

A relay will "tick" when the in insufficiant voltage or if there is a problem with the windings, just run a volt meter over the back on them to find out which on it is and buy a new one
