2. Check for secure connection at the chassis to switch
connector. This is the harmonica connector on the
column (Figure 118). Secure if loose. Check all
individual wire terminals for proper seating in the
connector bodies. Terminals should be locked in
place.
3. Depress hazard warning button and check all lights
in signal switch system. Replace any which do not
work. If
all
lamps light when hazard warning is
depressed, but flashing does not occur, replace
hazard warning flasher. (On fuse block) (Figure
119).
4. If
all
directional lamps light when lane change or
turn indicator is actuated, but no flashing occurs,
replace the turn signal flasher. This flasher is
located under the instrument panel.
The above four steps will, in most cases, cure the
common signal switch system troubles. If the system is
still not operating correctly, use J-23980 to determine
whether the chassis wiring or the signal switch itself is at
fault.
MECHANICAL
1. If the customer’s complaint indicates the problem is
in the switch, function check as to return from full
left and full right turns.
Actuate the turn lever into a full turn position in
either direction, then turn the steering wheel (motor
on — power steering) at least 1/4 turn in the
direction indicated and then back to center. Do this
in both directions. If the lever does not return to the
neutral position, disassemble the upper part of the
column until the switch is visible.
2. Check the return from lane change by holding the
lever in lane change and releasing (both left and
right). If the lever does not return to neutral,
disassemble the upper part of the column.
3. If the hazard warning button cannot be depressed
or released, the switch must be replaced.

Switch Visual Inspection
1. With the upper part of the column disassembled so
that the signal switch is visible (Figure 121) check
for missing springs. Replace any spring that is
missing, inspecting the molded pins which secure
them. If these pins are broken, the switch must be
replaced.
2. Check the position of the switch in the bowl. If it
appears cocked or crooked, loosen the securing
screws (3) and visually inspect the switch. If any of
the plastic is broken or badly deformed, the switch
must be replaced.
3. If the switch appears undamaged, replace it being
careful to seat the pilot into the housing, tighten the
screws to 25 in. lbs. of torque.
