Note

What to do if the stalk switch light emits a very loud sound?

The Owners of domestic cars is no stranger to noisy working mechanisms of this kind. Almost all the Vases (especially on “Field”) switch stalk works very hard and rough. On the one hand, it's a small thing, but sometimes flashed a thought about self-improvement of the mechanism. How to improve stalk switch wiper right? Consider the method by the example of the car VAZ 2108.

Improvement of the mechanical operation of the switch

First we need to pull out the element cover and remove the handle. After that we will see the inner workings. What is indicated by a yellow line, – this profile, in which moves the rod when switching the turn signal. A clicking sound may occur for two reasons – if you enable details and if it is turned off. In the first case, the handle mechanism on the end that will hit severely on the side of the case (when the turn signals). The second characteristic sound is generated because the spring loaded rod that beats in the center of the yellow line. To eliminate the last problem on their hands very difficult, but in the first case everything is much simpler.stalk switch wiper

First you need to look at the handle of the switch and its device in the end. The two arrows indicate its place in the housing wall. In this case, it's beating the place enough to stick on the double sided tape a small piece of foam or some other cushioning material (for example, for greater reliability to choose the tires). Place beneath it, you need to whittle down about 1-2 mm deep. Also more soft and enable the turn signal. It is enough to shorten the spring on 1 to 2 turns.

Some motorists are advised to glue a piece of rubber still on the cover, but in practice it does not bring any benefit. The return lever, which is mounted on this place, does not emit significant sounds, so glue doesn't need.

We Now turn to the right switch. It is also doing the switching is softer. As in the previous case, for this you need to shorten the spring. But to reduce it should be no more than 2 turns. At the same time, it is recommended to check the status of the contacts, which shows a broad arrow on the switch.

What we got in the end?

An Improved switch stalk was much quieter to work practically without annoying clicks. Thus, after a few manipulations, we slightly reduced the noisiness of the working parts of the mechanism that will affect the ride comfort of the (albeit slightly). For the full effect better, of course, to make full soundproofing.

Finally, we note that to reduce the noisiness of operation of the switch in any case do not need to install it with other car models. First, it is much more expensive than double sided tape and a piece of gum, and secondly, in its form, it is unlikely to be combined with the overall interior design, not to mention the size and wiring diagram.stalk switch wiper

Now, we find out how the dismantling of this element and how it is possible to improve the mechanism of its switching.
