Reproduction 70 turn signal switch hazard fitment issue

[TexasRoadRunner68]

Any of you guys had this issue? The column in my car is a column shift e body column, but I also have the correct 70 4 speed b body column and it has the same issue. It will install with hazard off, but the button appears too big for the column slot.

Pull it out and trim it off so the knob will slide in the hole. Here's another reason that re-pop T/S switches are of poor quality. Most switches don't work correctly once installed. Good luck.

What it should look like..

The replacement switches are based in the 72 and laters production design (second 71 half year actually)

DadsB, I have a broken cam on one that I own have you ever tried an aftermarket cam kit to fix the 70 only turn signal assembly? Like stated I have 1 NOS, 1 superseded NOS, and after reading this post a 70 unit but one ear broken and hoping a cam kit can be used to have another spare. TIA for your input

Used a replacement cam I got from AMSNOS doing the Bee restoration and it lasted about 8 actuations before the hard wires feel off. Then had to replace it with an NOS 69 switch. As for the 70's I have an NOS and a mint used. Neither or going anywhere...

Ok good to know. I always wondered about the A/M cam kits. I buy 70 units when I can find them. Thanks for the reply Rick

Had the exact same issue for my 70 GTX. Did exactly what toolmanmike said and it works fine. My car is unrestored driver.
