Re: [FWDLK] More questions about 61 new yorker

[Bill Watson <wwatson@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mike,

>From the 1960-1963 Chrysler Canada shop manual :

1. Disconnect battery ground
2. Disconnect directional signal wires at the connectors
3. Remove the directional signal switch (held to the jacket tube by two
screws).

The switch has a toggle lever in the centre of the half circle that attaches
to the steering column jacket.  There are wires that run from this switch to
the dash mounted switch.

To install a new switch :

1. Connect the directional signal switich wires at the connectors
2. Position the turn signal switch on the column tube making sure the column
jacket does not restrict switch movement and install the two attaching
screws.

 For the 1960-1962 Chryslers the steering wheel does not have to come off.
