Hi Everyone
The direction indicators on my 1998 P38 4.6 HSE cancel before the turn is completed. Anyone any ideas how to rectify this annoying problem. Any help would be most appreciated
 
Is it the arm thats moving back before the turn is completed, or is it they stop working before that happens?
 
Hi Sirus

Thanks for the suggestion.
I have tried holding the stalk whilst making the turn and then letting go which did appeared to work but now I am unable to indicate a right turn unless I force the stalk in that direction and forceably hold it in position. I guess I need to remove the plastic surrounds in order to see whats going on. Anyone know is this is an simple job.
 
I removed the stalk and found that one of the cams which cancel the direction against a pin on the steering column had over shot the return spring. I pushed the cam back into position where it should have been and bingo everything works as it should do. One multi plug connects all the wiring. Makes a change to repair something without spending a fortune.Thanks again for your help
