Strange Electrical Gremlin

  1. Out on the 1996 916 and went to indicate but the unit moved, vibrations probably cause the screws to come lose! So straightened it up which has caused a new issue . Every time I use the indicator selector it triggers the horn when pressing it. Any tips or suggestions, anyone come across this?
     
  2. I hate to sound cynical, and it's only a longshot, but i wonder if somebody has been in there repairing it already as assuming that tightening the screws hasn't cured anything (which it should have done). I remember repairing a few over the years, so hopefully a careful strip down/reassembly might be all that's needed alternatively it's looking for a replacement which of course goes without saying.
     
  3. I took apart a 2002 LH switch gear. It is close to a box of springs in there, very very tight too. May be worth a look inside for a lose wire or slipped contact plate. Try to disconect and do it on a bench
