pretty easy, depending on how much knowledge you have with mechanics, I'd put it down to wiring or contacts in the handle, its probably not broke, just needs cleaned up after years, does it still click and also cancel when making a turn?

Hi,
THX for reply, going to the right, it does not click, thereroe I have to hold it up till I make my turn then I release handle and it goes off. All Lights do work

I'd buy the entire module for what ever you have - can't beat FCP Groton Prices.

VADIS instructions are attached. I was a little puzzled at first about the amount of work involved in replacing the turn signal switch as opposed to the wiper switch but I now see that it is held on differently.

As you are working on part of the SRS system I would advise disconnecting the battery negative lead and waiting at least 3 minutes before you start.

The torx screws are accessed from the rear of the steering wheel so you need to move it around to get in to them.

When re-connecting the battery have the ignition key in position 11.

If you are still looking to get the part try our sponsor Erie Vo-Vo, link at the top of the forum.
