I need to sort the indicator switch on my 71 californian import westy.
Until earlier today, I could not indicate left without holding the switch down, right was OK as was headlight dip/main.
It's been like this a while and I thought that before I invested £100+ on a new switch I'd see if I could get it to work by taking it apart/cleaning it etc.
Removed the switch from the column (still wired) and had a little play with it and managed to get the LH switch to work a couple of times before giving up and refitting it.
Now the dip/main and LH will not work so will have to go for a new one.
Has anyone bought/fitted one? C&C have 15% off this weekend so seems like a good time to buy but I've seen on the Samba that the aftermarket ones are a bit hit and miss.
Also, not sure whether American spec ones differ or whether the replacements are universal?
Any help would be appreciated before I part with my hard earned.
Thanks
