I had a issue with my ignition switch so I replaced that, while I was in there I knew I had a problem with my turn signal cam not turning the blinker off when turning right. I replaced the turn signal cam, but my turn signals are not working at all now. Im sure its the cam not making a connection on the switch, but it all looks right.

I have power on the front side of the cam.

Anyone have any specific instructions or insight for me?

Thanks in advance.

I had to spread the wire contact arms because they didn't reach the contact buttons under them.
I don't think I could explain how much, but if you assemble it all without putting the steering wheel on yet, you can play around with it and see why it isn't working.

I just had to slightly tweak all the wires just a bit wider apart.

It got even weirder when as I was making the changes, at one point the flasher was clicking when I turned on a signal but nothing on the car was. :-)

Hope this gives you something to go on.
 

Its just really finicky. When I replaced mine I just had to keep putting it on and taking it off to bend the prongs a bit until everything worked. Some di-electric grease wouldn't hurt either.
 
If you draw one screw down tight and wrong first it wont work. It plastic, There's enough resistance from all its wires to distort it.
Carefully seat the switch flat and tighten the screws working from one to another.
 
Worked on it a little last night. I got the front blinkers to work. Rears dont. They do work with the flashers on.
