Hey Nigel. I'm unable to send you a private message since I'm new here. Not sure what I can do for you anyway?

One more issue. The indicator switch usually won't register a left press on the first try and sometimes it takes five tries to get it indicating to the left. Indicating to the right works every time. Is this a common issue? Haven't opened the switch yet, but can it usually be repaired or should it be replaced?

Common problem, no big deal. Remove, disassemble, clean, use contact spray, reassemble, be happy.

Take some pics yourself, then you won´t be in doubt.

Thanks! Disassembled, cleaned and greased it according to those instructions. It's a lot better now, but still acts up a bit. Will have to redo it later.

Thought I'd show off a bit. Installed a LeoVince end can today.
