I'v had it apart and it's all good and tight. I could hit with some contact cleaner.. My switch is very similar to that, but I'd like to keep the switch I have because it's the original self canceling switch, even if it doesn't work 100%. This car will only go to a few shows in the area, and possibly down to the ice cream stand.

The turn signal switch is a double pole double throw since it has a rest or neutral position. If it was a single throw you would always have one side or the other flashing dependent on switch position.

I can understand that in that, just trying to point out all options. Fond of the 51 first car I drove sitting on phone books. So the turn signal cancels after the turn is made, how does that happen? I wish I could see a picture of the switch.

Theres a wheel that spins on column. Pulling the lever into a position pushes the wheel into the colomn so it spins, when it spins the opposite way, it puts pressure on the lever and pushes it back to center. Simple mechanism, but it works well.

Ok thanks I though it would look like that, love the wheel action. I had that picture in my head was not sure . Next time you have it off take a picture so I can see the switch itself. There could be an outside chance a substitute can be found. I am always amaze how much changes but stays the same.
I see a suicide knob . Perfect!
