indicator micro switch
Discussion
Can you see them when you remove the shroud underneath the steering column? There's a wingnut at the rear on the drivers wing, a 10mm bolt on the center tunnel then the front is velcrod. Remember the steering column control box is velcroed to this panel, so be careful of the wires.
If you're still struggling, just take the bolt out the steering column adjustment, disconnect a blue and black plug and disconnect the air vent pipe and ribbon cables - the whole lot comes out
The black lever that adjusts the steering column up/down in and out. You need a 10mm socket for teh bolt head on the lever side and a 12mm spanner for the nut on the other side. Undo the nut, pull out the bolt and the whole steering assembly comes away, steering wheel all still attached.
There's a small 3 pin black plug and a larger blue plug together just under the main dash, and the 5 way and 10 way ribbon cable going to the indicator control box. Then it's just the air pipe. The whole of the vent pops out to make it simple to disconnect the pipe, but on my car I have a smaller pipe going into a larger one so it just all came out without disconnecting.

Incidently, there is a setup mode fro the cancelation. I've never tried it but:
You press the two left hand buttons on the steering wheel and the right top button, all at the same time.
Both indicators should appear constantly.
if you then move the steering wheel past the indicator cancel on either side the corresponding light should go out.
This is used for resetting the indicator cancel sensors. To exit the set-up mode turn off the ignition

thanks byker.... all that looks like a lot of nasty work i haven't had the steering wheel off in years.... have had my head in the footwell for the last couple of days and i'm about there now... maybe i just won't turn right anymore......everything electrical is different to the drawings all PCBs are not in boxes and just have tape wrapped around them all very fragile !!
it will be done today!!

Hum - Possibly you have a broken ribbon cable. There's a couple of short ones that run from the steering wheel down to a circuit board mounted on top of the end of the steering column, then another that connects from that to a control box velcro'd to the removable column cover.
Which might be why it works, then doesn't. Be worth keeping an eye on it.
