northcarolinaman Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 A strange issue just started happening. My turn signal works fine and blinks when turning left. However, it stopped blinking for a right turn...unless I put additional pressure on the switch. If I can get the blinker started most of the time it stays on as I am turning right. Has anyone else run into this? How do I fix it? Thanks, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Tom I'm having the same problem with one of my cars and I traced it to the Turn Signal Switch which has brass contacts inside which wear out over time and no longer make contact. Here is a Link to a DIY Repair. http://tss.likeabigdog.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitehawkjcb Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Yep, sounds like the multifunction/turn signal switch is failing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich_e777 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Yup, been there done that. nitehawkjcb got it. I think they are about $40 at Autozone, could be wrong its been awhile. I didn't have to remove my steering wheel to change mine IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitehawkjcb Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I had to pull my wheel also. But we're both 5th gen Montes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
