WI WTB: Turn signal switch for tilt column NOS

[DeadheadNM]

Anyone have a spare NOS turn signal switch for a tilt column? Thanks, Pete

Pete, Do you have a GM Part # ?

Hi Mike. I believe p/n 1893596 will work. It's the example that uses the straight to curved adapter but I'd take it. Thanks.

Hi Pete, we have the long discontinued tilt column specific GM NOS turn signal switch with the extra bulb socket & power wire harness available in the below linked parts board F/S thread, the t/s switch is listed as item #16 on the NOS parts list. Have a look and lmk, Mel

Sold. Thanks, PM sent.

Anyone have an idea if the wires can be teased out of the straight connector and placed into an OE half moon connector? Would spare the "bulk" up under the dash.

Hey Pete, no the general couldn't have made it that simple for us, the wire harness terminals themselves that clip in are different on each style connector. The curved/half moon connector uses Delco Packard "twin-lock" style terminals and the other style straight connector uses Delco-Packard "pack-con" style terminals. I get that you are wanting to eliminate having to use the short jumper adapter harness to connect the column t/s switch to the main dash harness which would save one more extra connection point/possible future problem.

I may have another option available for the purist that you are, I think that we have an older style (Delco pull string boxed) NOS tilt specific t/s switch with the earlier style half moon connector stuck back in our personal use/build collection of parts. The later style NOS Delco tilt style t/s switches were priced @ $177.36 before being discontinued by GM, would need a little bit more $ on the older OE style switch but can check and pull it out if interested.

Hey Pete, I got the other NOS turn signal switch pulled out for pics this evening, this is the older OE style switch and harness specific for Auto/TH column shift tilts. This early production NOS t/s switch has the desired half moon style connector for installing without the use of an adapter/jumper harness, also note the separate single grey power wire with the OE Packard black connector and the switch mounted bulb socket for lighting the tilt only shift indicator dial/lens. I will forward the total and info for sending of funds now, Mel
