Changed out both the Directional switch and the Wiper switch in the 914 a week or so ago. Seems to be working fine EXCEPT - the wiper return to off capability still doesn't work.
I have the following steering wheel, part number 914-347-8041, a hard plastic phenolic ?? wheel with the following return post, see pics. Seems the return post isn't long enough to mate with the switch mechanism. Is it broken off or is there another part I should be looking for ?? I've scoured the World for previous posts on this subject to no avail. Or maybe I'm still a rooking at looking Thanks all   |

PM Mark Heard "914SIXER". He scours the internet and comes up with OEM replacement parts all the time and he doesn't Scalp you, either! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) I bought 2 turn signal assemblies from him. One to use and one as insurance as their numbers are dwindling.

I have dealt with this same issue. It shouldn’t be too hard to troubleshoot. My experience was that it was an alignment issue.
First off - can you cause the switch to reliably cancel by manually pushing the white tab on the switch up or down with the wheel off?  |
