Turn Signal Swith

[69RRJohn]

Hi everyone, just joined after acquiring my first bird, a 69 numbers matching RR Hardtop. Some tweaking required of course.....any ideas on how to get to the turn signal switch (suspect just needs tightening) without removing the steering wheel? The switch lever is floppy and doesn't engage.

You have to remove the wheel!

Welcome from Fla. The turn signal lever attaches with a screw. I replaced the lever and the switch when doing the steering column. Yes pull the steering wheel. Not that bad of job. Used a steering wheel puller. When putting it back make sure the large spline lines up with steering wheel. Good luck.

Thanks, it's what I thought. I WAS able to remove the horn RR cap and the horn pad and with a small thin screwdriver, tighten the screw which secures the lever. It wasn't easy but did get it to tighten. Temporary band-aid until I source a wheel puller. Thanks again!

Unfortunately the wheel has to come off
