Turn signal switch

[John Quilter]

Mine is like RollyTG's in photo (old turn switch.jpg (129.49 KiB)) although thankfully not broken. In the event it breaks or wears out is is possible to substitute the later type with the toothed white plastic ring, assuming these are now more available.

I have not done so as I already have the later version but I would think it possible as long as all the components as changed over. I doubt if the fixing points were changed just the mechanism for the self cancelling part. I think it has also been mentioned that there appears to be two earths in the new wiring loom where as the old one only has one but that should not be a problem.

As long as your column is drilled & tapped/threaded to secure the metal cancelling ring/clamp/bracket bolts X 2 that engages the plastic toothed ring you will be able to fit the newer self cancelling mechanism.

It is somewhat crowded around the column on my car because of the auto transmission shifter.
Clearly the cancelling "finger" is a bit bent for some reason - it was worse. ????
