[Healeys] BJ8 Horn/Signal light assembly question

[BJ8Healeys]

Tom, it sounds to me like you rotated the disc whose purpose is to expose
the three screws that hold the two halves of the trafficator assembly
together.  The tang on the disc fits into a cutout on the assembly to keep
the disc from turning, so it is intended to be rotated back to that location
again (see attachment).  The disc has nothing to do with cancellation of the
turn signals.  That is done by a "wavy" piece of metal (actually, it's a
cam) and the two hinged pieces that ride on the cam.

When did your cancellation problem start, and what was the problem?

So I was having signal light cancellation problems---so I removed the three
set screws and backed out the assembly far enough to access the round metal
disc. I rotated it until I got the cancellation that I liked.

My concern-------------------the assembly now does not fit flush to the
steering wheel hub.  There is a noticable gap between it and the hub.  

I noticed that on the metal disc there is a 90 degree "foot" coming off of
it.  Does this foot go in a special spot on the hub?  If so, that might
answer why I have such a noticable gap.  

Even so, everything works as it should--horn blows, signal lights work and
cancel--it is just the gap that bugs me.

Any hints?  Does your assembly fit flush up to the steering wheel hub?

Thanks
tom
