new WW steering wheel and new WW 9 wire turn signal stalk.
cancel ring activating high beam. i tried to wrap some electric tape around column to move stalk out a bit as a test but that's not working.
anyone else have this problem?
suggested fix?

never mind. I'm missing the inner 1/2 circle piece that clamps around column.
hoping it's still at paint shop.

This is still happening after I put in the C Clamp.
The cancel ring will activate high beams when turn signal is either on left or right.
Could it be a ground problem? The horn works fine - so no grounding issues there.

| Is it the kind of turn signal mechanism with the hi-low on the stalk by pulling up? |

Sounds like you might have the ground and high beam wires mixed, does one of the brown ones have a white stripe?

Fixed! My two Brown wires from stalk were switched.
Thank you to all for your helpful suggestions.

Interesting as I don’t have two brown wires on the headlight relay.
Thanks for the reply! |
