My turn indicator wont return to neutral after making a turn. Cant find much on it , any good ideas please ?????

 

There's a white plastic rotating disk under the steering wheel that has a protrusion on it that bumps up against the turn signal cuff when you complete your turn (as in recentering the wheel after the turn). When this white plastic gets brittle over the years, it causes the protrusion to break off preventing the turn switch from coming back to neutral after you recenter the wheel.

You can remove the steering column plastic parts with 4 "X" head screws from the bottom, and then remove the steering wheel to see the plastic rotating disk.

Replacement may be required through VB or another retailer, or you can always look at the pick-a-part places. Good luck,

 

i had to buy that peice from mazda, and i got the ONLY bearing in the country(steering gearbox)...WEWT, the plastic cancelor was like $25...

 

Damn did they rip you. I paid like only $4 for the turn signal canceling cam from Mazda parts.

 

another 2 year old thread revived from the dead!! lol

anyways my question is to clarify that the white plastic canceler just slips in there and the spring holds from the middle?

thanks in advance

 

Actually I appreciate you took the time to find a related thread and bumped it up to ask your question. This way we can always add more relevent information to the thread to enhance the thread.

If I remember correctly the 2 tabs(pin like) that stick up from the center of the combo switch are what actually control the shutting off. This part is molded into the center of the combo switch.
