Both signals work fine,but the left one has to be physically turned off after a turn.Is there instruction on the site as how this could be fixed?

Sometimes you can get away with putting in new cnacel cam springs but with it's age don't mess with it just swap theturn signal switch. The new switch will make it feel like brand new again.
I replaced the one in the 93 wagon at 60K cause of the same issue. Switch works better now than it did at 30K. _________________ Robert Adams

Turn signal switch? Where would you suggest I can get one? And is there a "how-to" info page here on the site? Thanks! _________________ '79 Chevy Corvette,350 sbc- '78 Olds Cutlass Supreme,350 sbo'- 99 Mitsubishi Galant,3.0 V6- '84 Chevy El Camino Conquista,305 sbc
The first part of the instructions will work fine on how to get the wheel, lock plate and switch off. You just won't be going on down with the column disassembly. _________________ 84 Elky with 455 Buick, Tremec TKO600 5 speed, 8.5 3:42 posi -

Yup that's the one.
I used to buy the ones with cornering lights as they were generally cheaper and just had extra wires... Never understood why you would make two differnet switches. Cheaper just to make one and only use the wires on it you need. Just one of those little things that could have saved Gm and us $. _________________ Robert Adams
