Hello gang!

Well I recently had issues with my aftermarket daytime running module installation. The module relay started buzzing off and on and eventually failed. Drove with out the module and turned on the lights the old fashioned way, by turning the right hand indicator to 'lights on'. Well eventually the switch began to get flaky where the lights would stay 'on' when the switch was 'off'. I had to pull the fuse to turn the lights off, meanwhile smelling electrical burning smells.

I brought the Delila (Delila the Delica) into the shop today where they looked at the problem and removed the steering wheel and 'repaired' the stem and circuit board within with no guarantees of longevity or any kind of success ($275 later).

Well tonight I drove it home and the indicator switch for the lights was malfunctioning again!

2 questions:
1) has anyone repaired this indicator stem switch before?
2) where would be a good place to get another one?

Thanks for your help.

Rock on.
Mike
