On a 1958 plymouth, does the turn signal switch have a nub on the top of the switch that engages the turn lever and toggles back and forth lighting the turn signals?

Like this?



If so, the PN for a 1955-56 Mopar *WITH* Power Steering is 1595 236 (or just 1595236 when doing a Google search)

It looks like the first one below:

The later ones (1957 to 1963) were PN 1769321 which was eventually superceded to 2196322

Colors are different and needs a pin.

I bought a used one that didn't have the pin it ( broken off) . I was wondering if I was right that it was broken or if I was missing something. Looks like there are a few around that aren't broken so that good.

Very nice and complete info, Dave. It's exact what is needed for Mopars.  - SERGE -

I've annotated that switch function diagram so I am absolutely clear in my mind as to what wire position on the six-pin layout is doing what.

I think the design of the switch is very clever.

Would somebody be able to tell me where the copper spring thingy goes as per my photo in the above parts diagram .
I can't pick it out .
Also the Nylon Locking Insert has a Bevel on it , does the Bevel face outwards or inwards .
Cheers ,
Bucket
