Re: turn signal - switch alignment? or adjustment needed?

[Tom Watters <tomwatters@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jim,  Either alignment, or the contact where the left turn signal
goes to has some gunk in it.  I had a Coronet with the problem you
describe, and I just needed to be taken out and cleaned.

Hope it helps.
