'working?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'can i turn it on somehow' is the wordplay.
'turn' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'somehow' indicates an anagram.
'can'+'i'='cani'
'cani' reversed gives 'inac'.
'it'+'on'='iton'
'iton' anagrammed gives 'tion'.
'inac'+'tion'='IN ACTION'

'to get it' is the link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for in action that I've seen is " Doing something".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
