    Indicator stalk and wiper motor

    A couple of random questions for members. How do I remove the end of the indicator stalk? Is there a plate between the preslite wiper motor and the firewall? I know there is a rubber spacer, but my parts manual shows a plate as well.

    Thanks V. I cannot find a pic of it. Looks like about 5mm, I think I can make one.

    HQ-HJ: Remove the steering wheel and remove the Phillips head screw that holds it on. Then slide out the hole.
    HX-HZ: Remove the steering wheel and remove the Phillips head screws (3?) that holds it in place and then unplug the wiring from the column and pull the whole thing forward to remove working the wiring through.

    Are you talking a simple indicator only stalk (HQ/HJ) or a later multi function one that does high beam etc as well. If its the simple one the end (last inch or so) just screws on as far as I know

    Mine is a HZ, so multifunction I assume. You can push it down and turn it clockwise and anticlockwise.

    Thanks V. I did a search through my spares and found one, happy days. I'm still not confident getting the end of my indicator stalk. Don't want to break it. I need some more advice.

    Never done it, but I've seen these in pieces & with different coloured knobs on them, so they definitely come apart. Im sure the little cap on the end of the multifunction switch pops out, (I would use a pik tool, or point of a test light). When the end cap is off, you can see little fingers or claws holding the twist bit on to a shaft, if you push the claws apart, the knob will come off.

    Good luck
