The “RH” (actually, upper) end of the inner floating brass contact on the moving part of the switch does not seem to have enough spring pressure to contact the GW contact. The other end of this floating contact seems to do just fine. Considering how brittle the plastic is, I gave up and ordered a new unit.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Oh, and I figured out the reason why the flasher continues to click. Doh! I have an electronic flasher because I have LED front and rear lamps installed. Forgot about that.
