Re: [Chrysler300] Turn Signal Switch

[Brandt Jimerson <brandt300g@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everybody!!  Yep, sure enough, my G turn signal cancel switch isn't working either. I took it apart, cleaned the contacts and examined the 'microscopic' spring which may but NOT necessarily be the culprit for cancelling failure.  Put it this way, the small rubber(like) arm (when switch is out), when pushed in, STAYS in. Is this normal!? It seems that spring should push arm back out (when pushed in), and in the installed case, remain rigidly outward after brushing by any of the 4 (and I don't know what the heck they're called) 'obstacles'  responsible for arm to go far enough to make contact. It would work for a while but then those 'obstacles' would (I'm thinking),  push rubber arm in and bad spring can't make arm go back out  to where it should be for proper activation (if you can follow what I just said). PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS MY THEORY ONLY and may not be what is necessarily happening!! Please by all means, suggestions a plus!  Sincerely and 300ly, Brandt H. Jimerson, 
 300G.

I can give you the basics but others will give you a more technical 
explanation. The Turn Signal Canceling Switch is actually on the steering 
column. When the steering wheel is going back to straight after making your 
turn, there is a little arm on the switch that send an electrical signal to 
cancel the Turn Signal Lever.  If you remove the Turn Signal Canceling 
Switch from the steering wheel and move the arm to the left or right it 
should return to center. If it does not, you need a new switch. It's that 
simple.
