Re: Turn Signal Switch kaput?
So I pulled the steering wheel to sort out the TS mechanism. 55 years of new Mexico heat really fried this plastic; very powdery looking. And small loose bits, never a good sign. It seems to have lost the small horns that keep it in position once flicked on. I'll check with my garage to see what degree of TS function is required in a vehicle of this age; if it flashes while held in position, maybe i can get it on the road temporarily? I am ordering the replacement switch, so the saga will continue.
On a brighter note, I attached a long ground wire to the rear bulbs (popped out the holders) and they light up with the brakes. the bulbs that came with it had short pigtails from the bases; a grounding fix I wonder?
