Well, I was drivin the '59 Belle' today. Made a wide right turn, when I felt something stick. Oh no I thought, hope the steering wheels not locking up. POP! turned it left. got a ways down the road when my wife, who was driving behind me to see if all the lights were working properly while driving, tells me to pull over. Seems my right turn signal was stuck in the on position. I had to drive it home like that so she stayed close behind me. Then the horn started blowing insesently. Somehow it was linked to the turn signal mechanism on the steering colum. I jiggled the turn switch and it stoped. After I parked her I looked At the turn switch, it was kinda limp and not clicking into place while seting it to the left or the right. Anyone ever have this problem and what can I do to fix her? Is it gonna require some serious work? Do I have to dismantle the steering column? Help!!!!!!!!!! richard. P.S. -Oh yeah, did I mention this is my first restoration and that I just got her. |
