I was having trouble with the left signal not staying down. It would pop right back up The right turn worked fine. So I took a look and things looked pretty worn and dirty so I went ahead an put it a new turn signal kit. Problem solved on the left turn staying down. BUT, now neither signal will self cancel when the turn is completed. What is it that kicks the signal back to the neutral position?

Mickey, Since this has to do with lighting, it’s been moved to the Electrical Bay as that’s the most on-topic forum for your topic. wink

You guys are great. I didn't even see that when I removed the old steering wheel. Thank goodness I didn't throw it away. I'll get that finished in the morning.

UPDATE installed needed piece and all is well. salute2
