Direction indicators do not cancel automatically on right-hand turns


Background

After a completed right-hand turn the indicator stalk switch does not always automatically return. This is especially noticeable when turning the wheel slowly. This is due to the switch module and connected items having too high a tolerance and thus not activating the indicator stalk automatic return mechanism.

Cars concerned

M94 cars with chassis number R2019900.

Procedure

As a first line of action, the switch module should be adjusted on cars where the customer has complained about this problem.


1. Remove the steering wheel bearing cover.

2. Remove the direction indicator stalk switch.

3. Undo the upper right-hand bolt (2).

4. Undo the lower left-hand bolt (1).

5. Push the switch module hard to the left and tighten the upper right-hand bolt (2).

6. Tighten the lower left-hand bolt (1).

7. Refit the direction indicator stalk switch and check by slowly turning the wheel that the stalk returns from its right-hand position. If it does not return, the stalk must be replaced.
