Re: Happy Thanksgiving and one quick question (Turn Signal Cancle Cam)
|
Thanks for checking, David. My column got pulled when I put on the new steering and suspension so everything is accessible. There are 3 screws.? I¡¯ve tried the common ones that I have laying around the garage and bought couple others. ? I have some gage pins in the lab at work that I can use to figure out the tap hole size, which should tell me what thread it is. ? Bob in PA. ? Sent from for Windows 10 ?

I am very Sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. I was thinking the cam was right under the pad & horn ring. I pulled those off & saw that the steering wheel would have to be pulled. Sorry I am unable to do this as I don't have a puller. I tried though.
How many screws mount the cam? My guess would be either something like or close to either a 4-40, 6-32 or 8-32 screw. I am leaning more towards the 6-32 or 8-32. This is only a guess going by the pic of the cam you posted.
You could measure the mounting holes in the cam to maybe get you close/give you an idea.
Other than that you could call Auto Krafters & ask them. They may even have them, though likely would be more expensive than picking a couple screws up at the local hardware store.

Bob,
It should be no problem in theory as the pad is only held on with 2 phillips screws & the cancel cam should be right there & easy access. The only question is how hard will the never been touched screws be to remove. The way I see it is it will be good to get those screws broken free so IF I ever need to work on it later it shouldn't be a problem.

Bob to answer your question. I am guessing you want to know size & if it is a machine or sheet metal screw?
IF you are not in too much of a hurry, I can try to get to one of my cars this weekend to pull off the pad & pull one of the screws, take a few pics of it with measurements & email you the pics.

I do have a quick question. What is the screw thread that holds the turn signal came into the steering column? I accidentally threw mine away.??
