2007 Chevy HHR Turn signal lever

Ok no need to remove the steering wheel first off. Now remove the trim from around the column and then you will see the switch and unplug it and then depress the locking tabs and remove the switch. thats it so it say's. Here is a pic

The switch cost about 53 dollars at your local parts store. here is a pic of the switch itself too. Hope this all helps thanks.

Thanks Racefan966...what a relief not to remove the steering wheel to replace the turn signal lever. Should be a fairly easy job now. Appreciate the prompt and detailed answer with pics.

No problem thats what we are here for. Thanks again and yes it should be fairly easy as it calls for about 30 min to do.

So how did it go?

It's my son's car and he's not reall accessable so I haven't done the fix as of yet. Don't expect any problems though. Thanks for checking

I see was just following up. Thanks

hey racefan966...I finally got to do this repair and it went pretty well, except for one thing. The instrument panel trim that surrounds the steering column and gage cluster prevented sufficient clearance for removing the switch from its housing on the steering column. Choices were to remove this trim piece or move the steering column to the right to provide clearance to remove the switch. I chose to loosen the steering column support bolts and was able to move the column to the right (about 1/8") just enough to get the switch out of its housing. The $54 switch fit in perfectly and all systems work properly. Job complete. Thanks for your help.

Here is good video showing the replacement. You can get the part for around $20 new if you look around a bit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PagJ8-BpOeA
