Cancelling Cam issue - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

C5Phil · 06-11-2013, 12:22 PM

Just installed my Grant steering wheel into my 70 GMC- used the Grant install kit and new cancelling cam (for tilt wheel) - everything works great except that my right hand directional will not cancel out-- Left hand signal works fine- anyone run into this issue or have an idea what I did wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated-

Did you knock the little canceling spring in the signal switch out?

Usually its the canceling spring that the cam hits. Right now mine cancels fine right but won't cancel left.

I have the Grant adapter and wheel on a CPP tilt column, and I had to bend the springs to get them to work at all either direction.

When I was troubleshooting mine I pulled the wheel and adapter, then just used the cancel cam to turn in there and see if it would hit. Took a few adjustments to get it to work, and it was fine for a while. Now it hasn't worked on the left in a month or so and I have to take it apart again.
