RE: Turn Signal Switch. Part # 70058-50B
I can't get the switch to work unless I push down and fiddle with the switch lever and then I can occasionally make contact. I blamed it on the re-pop switch, got another one and it acted the same. My dealer had a dimmer switch # 71840-29 in an OEM bag. The package didn't look that old and the switch looked identical to and operated exactly like the two re-pops. The dealer filed the contact pin to create a detent that made it operate like a directional control switch. Looks just like the contact pins in the re-pops. I have good continuity from the terminal board to the contact block in the switch. I have had the switches apart, the spring feels good, I've tried to massage the retainer plate to increase pressure. Are there better switches available or is there something I haven't tried?
Thanks,
Sam
