Turn Signal Lever is Loose

need to pull steering wheel and lock plate tighten turn signal cam and turn signal lever

When you touch the turn signal lever do you hear clicking noise befor u lift up or down if so then could be bad turn switch or just bad relay replace relay first if still doing it replace the switch get Haynes book to help with switch removal and install if relay don't fix it cause u will have to remove steering wheel etc to fix it if switch is bad

sounds like you have rats in your dash,or someone has been doing some rewiring,there has to be wires shorted together wired together

What happens if you have the key in the run position, you foot on the brake and you wiggle, pull, push the turn signal lever. Also try turning the hazards on and off slowly. All while keeping an eye on the brake lights to see if they come on momentarily.

I'm pretty sure the brake and turn signal share the same bulb If so we know that the bulb and the wiring from the switch to the bulb is fine. If there is power into and out of the brake switch than it is reasonable to assume that the problem is in between the brake switch and the turn signal switch if not the switch itself.

sounds like the hi-lo switch to me. I think yours is built into the multi-function wand. A new one is $200, and that's if you don't have cruise control... If you want to try replacing the headlight relay first, that's a lot cheaper, but I don't think it's the problem. Maybe you can swap it with a similar relay just to check and not have to buy one. The relays are in the relay box by the battery.

here are the instructions from autozone.com to replace the switch:
Steering Column-Mounted Switches
The steering column-mounted dimmer switch can be operated by an actuator control rod from the lever to a remotely mounted switch. Another style incorporates the dimmer switch into the multifunction switch.
If the dimmer switch is part of the multifunction switch:
•You'll need these tools to remove the switch: fender covers, battery terminal pliers, terminal puller assorted combination wrenches, torx drivers, and ohmmeter.
•Place the fender covers around the battery work area. Loosen the negative battery clamp bolt are remove the clamp using terminal pullers.
•Place the battery cable where it cannot contact the battery.
•Remove the shroud retaining screws and remove the lower shroud from the column.
•Loosen the steering column attaching nuts. Do not remove the nuts.
•Lower the steering column enough to remove the upper shroud.
•Remove the turn signal lever by slightly rotating the outer end of the lever then pulling straight on the lever.
•Peel back on the foam shield from the turn signal switch then disconnect the turn signal switch electrical connections.
•Remove the screws attaching the turn signal switch to the lock cylinder assembly and disengage the switch from the lock assembly.
•To reinstall the multiswitch, reverse the procedure.
•Torque the steering column attaching nuts to the amount specified in the service manual.

You posted in the fre section...no need for the dollar but I'll take a cold Corona and lime!


Here ya go....

Removal & Installataion

1. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position.
   
2. Remove the Steering Wheel as outlined in this section.
   
1. Remove the instrument panel trim cover.
   
2. Insert a screwdriver into the lockplate cover slot and pry out the cover. Remove the lockplate. A special tool is available to do this. The tool is an inverted U-shape, with a hole for the shaft. The shaft nut is used to force it down. Pry the wire snap ring out of the shaft groove. Discard the snap ring.
   
3. Remove the tool and lift the lockplate off the shaft.
   
4. Remove the turn signal lever screw and lever.
   
5. Press the hazard button inward and unscrew it.
   
6. Remove the switch retaining screws. Pull the switch connector out of the mast jacket and feed the switch connector through the column support bracket.
   
7. Position the turn signal lever and shifter housing in the downward, or "low" position and pull downward on the lower end of the column using a pliers on the tab provided. Remove the wire protector.
   
8. Remove the switch mounting screws. Remove the switch by pulling it straight up while guiding the wiring harness cover through the column.
   
3. To install:
   
   1. Install the replacement switch by working the connector and cover down through the housing and under the bracket.
      
   2. Install the switch mounting screws and the connector on the mast jacket bracket. Install the column-to-dash trim plate.
      
   3. Install the flasher knob and the turn signal lever.
      
   4. With the turn signal lever in neutral and the flasher knob out, slide the thrust washer, upper bearing preload spring, and canceling cam into the shaft.
      
   5. Position the lockplate on the shaft and press it down until a new snap ring can be inserted in the shaft groove.
      
   6. Install the cover and the steering wheel.
      

Retaining ring removal



Pliers may be used to remove the turn signal wire protector



Removing the turn signal switch



Install the lockplate and the retaining ring using the tool illustrated (or its equivalent)

Try replacing your turn signal flasher relay, very cheap part (around $2) and can be bought from just about anywhere that sells any type of auto parts. Also check your fuses.

If replacing the relay doesn't remedy your problem, take a voltmeter and test the socket the relay plugs into. Make sure to turn your turn signals on before this test or else it will read 0 on the voltage meter. If you are getting no power there, you are going to have to dig further into your dash and trace the wires to your turn signal switch. If you have to go this far, also check for voltage at the turn signal switch/lever (on your steering column).

Hope this helps guide to to your problem.

Try spraying some CRC into this switch make fix the problem

Sounds like the combination switch is bad. The comination switch is for the turn signals and high beams and sometimes cruise control and windshield wipers. The combination switch is the turn signal lever. Also might want to check turn signal flasher operation.

Gently pop off the horn cap / cover.

There will be a short wire attached, so be careful not to pull it too hard.

You will see the wire going into the metal frame of the steering wheel.

The wire will go into a "sleeve". Push the sleeve in, and turn slightly counter-clockwise to unlock the connector. The horn will beep a few times as you pull the wire out, just to warn you :)

You will now need a steering wheel puller. These can be bought for about $10 at any auto parts store.

Once the wheel itself is off, you will see a black plastic disk. remove it. Now you will see a metal disk with notches in it (this is what locks the steering wheel when you turn the key off). You may want to get someone for assistance for this one, as there is a pretty stiff spring behind the disc, so use caution. You will need to push the disc towards the dash and remove the retainer clip.

Once that is off, you will see the white turn signal switch. Remove the hazard switch button first, then the turn signal lever retaing screw (be careful if it has cruise control, as the wires are thin and delicate), then remove the 3 phillips head screws holding the actual switch on. Let the switch hang out of the way.

Now, you'll see the lock cylinder retaining screw. This is where you may have a problem if you don't have a key.

After removing the screw, you MUST turn the ignition switch to the "run" position and pull out the assembly.
