How easy is it to replace the turn signal switch? When I turn the indicator up or down it has to be in a certain position for the turn signal to activate. If I turn it all the way up or down and leave it in that position it does not activate the turn signals. I tried cleaning the contacts with no luck. Any advice other than replacement?

What about a signal switch that does not cancel (turn off) after the turn is completed? What could be wrong?

Thank you.

Drives me crazy when the turn signal does not cancel. I am thinking about replacing the whole switching unit for my 1973 914. All I need is an expert to say that is most likely the thing to do and I will order up a new one this week. The High beam wont stay on either so it must be the switching unit. Get two birds with one stone.
