Signals issue?!?

Hey guys.

I noticed that my signal switch is getting harder and harder to move left and right. Today I sprayed some white grease in it , and now most of the time I can't push it back in to stop blinking.. Any fix or suggestion for this??

P.S It moves easier now , left and right but gets stuck and doesn't want to be pushed in..I have to keep trying to push it in before it eventually goes in..Hope it makes sense

Thanks

Yeah I never encountered this. My guess is just wear and tear on the switch. I see this as an excuse to do R6 Control swap :grinnod:

Take the switch apart & clean it thoroughly use a fine emery to remove any slight burrs caused by wear over the years.

you might need a whole new box. there might be grim in it.
if you know how to, take it apart and clean the switches.
if it doesnt work or you cant do that, Iv got one that I can sell to you for like 5 bucks. I dont know what shipping would cost.
