I found an access panel on the right side of the tunnel right where they welded the bushing plate so I could’ve removed the rod right there instead of making an access hole underneath I had to weld back up 🤦♂️
Its all together and will outlive me least I’m hoping lol

ok so I took the flasher relay out cleaned the points contacts and it still does same thing. Â Makes one click sound when right turn on column lever and nothing to the left.

Well I took it off pulled cover and sanded the contacts to clean them up.  Not sure if they’re bad or what.  One of the long reeds is bent like it was overheated and linked or bent it a little.  Tried to make all of them straight and clean
sure is a huge pita to install this thing to see if it works 😂
