Tilt Column Parts Help?
 
I have a tilt steering column from a early GM Van

Just wondering how the turn signal cancelling cam Works?

Just seems to rotate round in the column without coming in contact with the turn signal switch

Am I Missing Something?

Do you have this turn signal canceling cam? It should install with the tube up. There are a bunch of different Cams out there.

These videos may help explain the operation.

It's indexed to the steering wheel through the hole for the horn contact. This allows the cancel cam to rotate with the steering wheel.. After the turn is completed and while the steering wheel is returned to the straight-ahead position, the two "nubs" on the cancel cam contact those two circular springs on the turn signal switch. The causes the turn signal switch to return to the off position.

Thanks Guys. I Installed Everything As In The Video, Torqued The Wheel Nut To 30ft Lbs.

The Signals Cancel Good But Noticed When I Turn The Wheel In Either Direction Im Getting a ‘Clicking’ Sound.

I Installed a Brand New Signal Cam
