I just put in a new hub, quick release, and wheel and now my turn signals won't turn off. I can get turn signal to work but once my wheel rotates around and then back to straight it just stays on. Info anyone?

My stock steering wheel is cruise control available so there was only 1 wiring harness going to what seems like a ground plate but thats just my guess. Anyone know how to fix? Turn signals do work. Just won't auto off once I complete a turn. Any help appreciated

did you use the little pins that came with the kit? they go into the backside of the hub and should contact the tabs on the module to kick it off. super glue them to the holes in the hub to make install easier.

What module if I know what I'm going for it'll be a little easier for me. Is it those 3 little copper colored buttons toward the bottom of steering wheel column?

NO, dont bother with the steering column It's most likely not the problem. on the back of the steering hub there are suppose to be two little dowel pin things that come off of it. Are they there? If not, find them, if you cant, go to your autoparts store and in the help section look for dowel pins. use those. make sure the part of the hub that says top is facing up then reinstall the hub.

Still can't figure it out. If you can find a picture of just sketch one out with paint that'd be extremely helpful. I'm going out now to try and investigate more. I do not have my horn setup either so will that affect anything?

And this is just a little extra question, is it possible to keep my cruise control features available? Put the little pod of buttons on my dash somewhere? Thanks

OK I have the two dowel pins. I found those. I will take a couple quick pics of the hub. Can you inform me of which holes it goes into? And the "TOP" faces a little to 11 or 1 o'clock all the time. The secondary holes they drilled are too high up so it wont go straight up. Let me know.

I think I'm gonna reinstall my horn also.

Refer to the original steering wheel for the positioning of the dowel pins.There is a write-up on the cruise control relocation somewhere on here. I think in the convertible section.The "top" arrow or marking will not be at exactly 12 o'clock. If you had the steering wheel centered before removal, there is a small punchmark at the base of the splined shaft. Use a sharpie to make a mark on the very end of the steering shaft. That way you will know how to offset the new steering wheel so it is perfectly straight.Sounds kinda' confusing, just do one thing at a time. You'll be alright.
