HI Folks,
I have a question about the steering column
jacket of my 1960 Imperial.
You see, since I bought my car 2 years ago I have
to cancel my turn signal switch by hand.
My horns weren't working either.
The problem was a missing turnsignal
cancellation switch that also has the brass roller that acts as a conductor
for the horn wire.
The horn problem was temporarily solved by
running a separate wire form the contact in the steeringwheel pad to the horn
relay..
A couple of days ago I tried to install my brand
new NOS turn signal cancellation switch but I noticed that the nylon cam
inside the column doesn't
line up with the hole in the outer
jacket.
So the switch won't work this way.
Does anyone have an idea how I can correct this
problem ?
Ofcourse I can use a small cutting wheel and make
a new access hole in the steering column outside jacket, but I don't like the
idea too much...
Is there a way to align the outer jacket again
with the nylon cam that operates the cancellation switch?
Many thanks,
Robert
