Turn Signal Switch Lubrication

Six Appeal · Post by **Six Appeal** » Wed Feb 09, 2005 3:16 pm

Has anyone successfully lubricated the signal switch mechanism? Mine seems really difficult to actuate (I don't know why, after only 23 years!). I was thinking I could shoot some tuner cleaner or something down in there.

Thanks....

Be careful of what you squirt down there. Use an electrical contact cleaner and make sure its safe for plastics, it will say on the label.

But now that it is clean you should lubricate the inside switch mechanism, I guess you could use WD-40 but I would just take the control apart clean it and lubricate the moving parts.

Jeff,

Can the switch be taken apart? Obviously, this procedure isn't in the service manual.

Thanks,

John
