I'm extremely pleased that you got it fixed, and even more pleased you published the end result. However, that does beg the question. In case I missed it before, why did you change the assembly to begin with?
You mean besides the idiot part?
I had the car blasted, metal work done, painted, engine and tranny rebuilt, and much of the interior replaced. The signal would not cancel, and my parts looked old. I had the wheel refurbished--it looks brand new, and the stalks just looked old. So I used the fact that the signal would not cancel on right turns as an excuse to light fire to money, something I have down to a science.
All that crap happened, or really I made all that crap happen, and here I am.
Usually when I "fix" something, I'm left wondering how it happened that I "fixed" it. This is one of those times, except I believe it was probably a poorly positioned cancel tab on the wheel hub. One of the posters here believed it needed to rest at 3 o'clock, and that was a position I don't think i had tried because that placed it right over the white signal tab. Alas, it must have worked.
I would prefer new parts, but now I'm afraid to try again, and the replacement parts are not identical to the originals. I am not good enough to make the proper alterations, I guess.
