Hey guys,
I recently had some problems with my turn signal switch in my car, which is listed here:

1. The turn signal would not click down to turn on the left turn signal if the steering wheel was turned left a tiny bit.
2. The turn signal switch would click up to turn on the right blinker at any position of the steering wheel.
3. No matter which blinker was being used (left or right) it would never click back off after the steering wheel aligned straight, I had to manually turn off the turn signal switch.

So, I removed the turn signal switch, unscrewed the base of the unit, and check to see if the band/spring inside was still intact, which it was. There was a broken white piece of plastic inside of it though. So, I went and got a replacement turn signal switch at Pull-A-Part and hooked it up. Now, it clicks into place for either blinker used, but will not un-click and shut off when I rotate back the steering wheel. Now the part I got from Pull-A-Part is from a 2004 Malibu, and mine is a 2007, so the turn signal switch wasn't too different.

Is there anything I can do to fix this??? I'm tired of my blinkers not turning off automatically like they should. Thanks for any and all help.

I have a 2007 Chevy Malibu LT 2.2L
