HELP: Indicator not self canceling?

Post by J-GTi »

Hi Guys( and girls) I'v just joined and would like to say what a great forum this is!
Now to start with the first problem I have as the title sugests My indicator will not self cancel when turning right, what i want to know is if this is just a problem with the stalk itself or something more complicated ? Hopefully some one can help me

Welcome to the forum mate, as for your problem I personally don't have a clue.

Just thought I'd say hello.

Welcome J-GTi!

I have this on mine too! I think you have to replace something inside the steering column, bit faffy! You r best livin with it!

Hi :)


I think there is a little switch within the steering wheel column that does the cancelling, sounds like this is faulty or broken...

That would make sense actually, because if you indicate right, it will only cancel once you have turned the wheel enough to the right.

So JWC may have come up with the answer 8)
