Good video. I found that the initial diagnosis was the cancel cam, and it wasn't, but those springs. I found the broken springs sitting on top of the steering columns bearings and needed a magnet to fish them out. The steering wheel puller and that spring plate tool were about $30 total at the auto parts store. Don't know how you can do this one handed, but great job. Mine was a 1994 k 1500 and there is a cover plate over the lock ring clip that was a real bear to get out.
Gotta check mine. I think my whole canceler broke in the steering wheel. I can hear plastic when turn the wheel and it locks up my steering wheel while I turn and the signal will turn on automatically when the wheel is slightly turned
@@christophersebastian8093 I did it long time ago just by following what this guy did. I also looked at a couple of other videos. Mine is a 1991 Sonoma. The hardest part was probably the wiring in the steering column.
@gregkelly612 yeah it’s a Chevy c10 80 something I’ve been looking for videos on a 63 impala came across this one & they have exactly the same parts on the steering wheel. From bolts,springs,retainer clips,etc. I’m having problems installing og steering wheel on 63 impala
i had the same problem so i replaced both springs as well as the cam itself since it was cracked. although i'm still with the same problem, only one side cancels. any ideas?
I think there is a little prong that sticks down off the horntop that hits the springs. at least thats what I remember. i'm looking at doing this job soon thats why Im looking at these videos again.
How did you get the lock plate off without prying the ring off first. Is there an easy way because I have been working 2 hours and cant release the ring ..its to tight. Any Ides anyone ,Im stuck
If you haven't figured it out by now, you need a locking plate puller. It pushes the plate back exposing the ring. Then you gotta work it loose with a screwdriver
@@modeljetjuggernaut4864 The U shaped tool presses the plate back about 1/4", then you turn the clip ring so the split is at the top where you can see it, then press a very sharp pointed tool into the clip ring with your left hand while having a flat screwdriver in your right to slide it out of the groove and go all around to slide it out towards you using the flat screwdriver.
My situation is different, but can't really search it because everytime I try to I get forum posts on turn signals not blinking and so on. My canceling can works to well! When I put left turn signal, the slightest movement to the left and it cancels, right works like its supposed to. Any ideas?
The fn bill your spring might b rusted together, so its extremely tight and has no tension, so when u do left movents it pulls the spring and cancels ur signal
I realize it's been 4 years since your post... Did you check to make sure your steering wheel was straight? If yes, the steering wheel may have been straight, but the front end's alignment was not (and the steering wheel's position was merely trying to compensate from an "appearance" standpoint). I had a similar scenario with my '65 C-10... the slightest Left and it cancelled, while Right turns were fine. Even though my wheel was installed straight, it was actually a slight front-end alignment issue.
