Turn Signal Cancellation Switch Trouble
I am having trouble with the turn signal cancellation switch. If I set the blinker (either left or right), I have to turn way beyond the normal turn radius 6 (almost into a U-turn) before the cancellation kicks in. I replaced the original unit with a very nice (and expensive) after market piece which looks identical to what I took off, but the problem persists. Any thoughts??? Many thanks in advance!
Hi Tommy,
OK, does your car have a stock steering wheel? If yes, I would first look at the back side of the steering wheel mounting flange. This is the part of the steering wheel that faces or mates to the turn switch. There will be a cancelling ring that is held to the steering wheel with 3 small screws. I am thinking that this cancelling ring is installed incorrectly. Here is what is will look like:
This part works to cancel the turn switch back to the neutral position.
If your car doesn’t have a stock steering wheel, check to see where the canceling ring lines up on the turn switch and make adjustment as necessary.
Hope this helps,
Andy
