My bike is an '88. Shouldn't the turn signal switch stay in place when you push it over to the right or left? Mine doesn't, I have to hold it with my thumb, which kind of sucks because I'm one of those guys who likes to give some notice I'm about to turn.
So does this mean my switch is broke inside, or is this how it's supposed to be?
No, my switch doesn't stay where I slide it at all. As soon as I take my thumb off it, it returns to center/off. I have to hold it where I want it until I finish the turn.
Mine had a ball bearing & spring set up that locked it on. When I converted it to selfcanx I took out the ball bearing. Split your control and you should see a #1 phillips screw. If so remove the screw and metal plate. A small ball bearing should be in a slide and pocket area. Check bearing and possibly steal a BB from a neighbor kid and see if its larger size will work. Anothe thing that might work would be a small sinker (non-lead) if your a fisherman.
Thanks Korr. They have some good stuff there, some of it better priced than I've seen on Ebay. :smiley_th
(I found the problem with mine BTW, now I'm just trying to find the single part I need, rather than the whole control assembly, if I can.)
