The left signal works great, the right one however does cancel when the wheel is turned but the flasher continues to make noise and both rear lights flash at the same time. This was on Saturday and I figured I couldn't do much about it until Monday anyway when these guys open. Long story short it blew one more fuse and the right signal won't shut off at all while the key is on.
I called them today to see if I could get a new one sent to me and they kept saying that they don't return electrical parts which I understand, but the part that ticked me off is the fact that this switch was bad right out of the box they still won't do anything about it. The guy kept telling me that because I installed it they won't take it, I said how am I going to know if it's going to work or is a piece of sh!+ if I don't install it. I didn't want any money back I just wanted a part that would accually work, Jack (was his name) told me that the best he could do is give me a $10 coupon towards my next purchase I told him he could sick that coupon because I will never get anything from them again.
Their loss, I am planing on starting the restoration on my 50 3100 this winter and was planning on getting stuff from them, NOT ANYMORE.

American Classic Truck Parts BEWARE

Did you have the switch on earlier and just replaced it. Or did you plan on adding turn signals. If you have a stock style harness and try to add turn signals Both lights will flash cause the harness is not made for TS's. You have to fix the wiring in back to work with signals. They don't tell you this in the instructions.

If the part is defective even electrical you should get your money back w/o question. We do it but we check out the part to see why its not working. Those switches can be crappy.
