View Full Version : Clicking from steering wheel - blinker stalk ?

Since I bought the ZHP I've had a minor annoyance with the steering wheel. When I turn it on either side, it clicks like when resetting the blinker stalk, no matter if the blinkers are on or not. It's getting a little annoying. The blinker stalk itself works as intended. What parts "reset" the blinker stalk in the steering column ?

Did anyone have this issue ? Couldn't find much on e46F, BF, etc.

On a similar topic, is it normal that the steering wheel locks when trying to turn it more than ~2" when the engine is off ? Other cars I've driven (Toyota, Subaru) had a bit more travel gap before locking.

My wheel does both things exactly the same.

Edit: Unless it's normal. :)
