Steering Wheel

Ok, what's this? When ever I'm turning my steering wheel I hear a clicking sound. Does anyone know what this is?? How can I fix it?

I don't think it either. It sounds like a clicking coming from the turnsignal. It happens just about all the time, even when I'm not signaling. But it's like I'm turning the steering wheel to a certain contact point or something. Any Ideas????

I notice it a slow turns, like I said I think its coming from the turn signal or steering colum. I really haven't paid attention to it a high speeds, its possible.

mine does the same thing. i am sure that mine is coming from the combo switch as well. it started making this noise after an unfortunate display of anger management during rush hour traffic. you can get a used one from the junkyard for $20-30. good luck.

I'd guess he's suggesting getting a new combo switch
that's the piece that controls the R and L signal, parking lights, low and high beam
if you take the plastic cover off the steering wheel base, you'll see a couple screws holding it on
