My horn was going on and off on its own, so I bought a blinker switch to fix the problem.
I bought a blinker switch from Sierra Madre and one from Jbuggs. Both came in the same white box. Both fixed the horn problem and everything else works, but when you turn a corner, the blinker does not cancel on its own. Same steering wheel and horn ring which worked fine on the previous switch. I also noticed the cancel do hickey, does not stick out as far as the original one. Any recommendations for one that does cancel on its own?

important that when you connect the turn signal switch to the wiper switch that both insert into the column very easily with no pressure and that the screws go all of th eway in not pulling the assembly down. If they are used to pull the assembly in then the switch will bind and the stalk not return

The last aftermarket switch I bought canceled just fine. But it would let out a loud SCREECH when turning the steering wheel.
I was ORDERED to put the old one back by the owner. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/betty914.jpg) |
