Turn signal cancel ring (source)

[swabbie]

I've installed a replacement turn signal that has the ability to cancel
the turn signal lamps after the steering wheel returns to normal.

Unfortunately, the plastic cancel ring that slips onto the steering column
has 'spindly' little fingers that easily break. Due to one of the two 'fingers'
breaking, only my right signal will now cancel.

Hopefully, I can locate a replacement cancel ring, and not have to buy
the whole kit to fix this.

Anyone know where I can find a new cancel ring?

Depending on your steering wheel you can make canceling ring out of hose clamp and chopstix or PVC tube cut to shape

This problem has been around since they first began using these turn signal switches. What we need is for someone to start 3D metal printing these things and get rid of the plastic cancelling rings that continue to fail.

I installed an aftermarket Grant brand steering wheel in mine. I drilled 2 holes for roll pins in the adapter and it works great.

Wonderful suggestion: (chopsticks)! Thank you.

Sorry to bring up this old thread but since my question does exactly fit, I didn't just want to open a new thread.

I was also planning on 3D print a cancelling ring myself and wonder If someone who has one could supply me with some exact measurements. I would of course make the 3D model available for everyone as well via thingiverse.

Thank you in advance!

Just buy it from Mac Motors for 30 clams

Thank you for the hint but I can't find the part as a single piece. Also the page says the do not ship outside of the USA due to ITAR restrictions.

For 30 bucks I would have already bought one.

PM me. I can buy it for you and mail it. Or you can just make one from PVC piping. I made one with two chop sticks from takeout Chinese food held in place with a hose clamp.
