New Turn Signal Switch

I just installed a new turn signal switch about 3 weeks ago and today it stopped working. It pushes up fine but will not physically go downward to engage the left turn signal. Is there an adjustment or something I over looked when I installed it?

I have not taken it a part or pulled the switch. From looking at the switch from the side it looks like there is a metal roll pin sticking up on the top of the switch but there is nothing at the bottom. Is this normal? Could this be keeping it from engaging the left turn signal?





Thanks,

Take the switch out and see if it actuates freely with out being in the column. If it doesn't, then it's a lot easier to see what's wrong.

It was the roll pin that the turn signal level pivits on (for high beam/low beam). It has worked it's way up to the top and was not allowing it to push down.

I pushed it back down and will keep an eye on it. Weird...
