Spectra Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hi guys, I've now been all over the internet looking for any info on this and I'm can't find a single post! The problem is that the indicator stalk on my 98 UK Impreza doesn't cancel 98% of the time. I know it's only a minor issue but I've not long bought the vehicle (my first) as a bit of a project and want to fix all the little niggles. The question is if I buy a new indicator stalk will that solve the problem or is there a cancellation peg on the steering column that can be adjusted and has anyone ever done it or will I have to buy a new one? I'd rather try and repair it myself rather than send it to a garage. Thanks for reading! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Not a problem I've ever come across to be honest, I think the stalk sits on a 'ring' that cancels it so you'd more than likely have to buy the stalk & assembly I'll try and find a pic Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spectra Posted December 6, 2016 Author Share Posted December 6, 2016 Cheers Stants, I watched 30 seconds of that video yesterday but turned it off when I realised it wasn't the same fault however just watched it all and it seems a pretty easy job. From looking at pics the stalk housing switch looks plastic or nylon so I think I'm gonna try swapping the housing out first. There's a few on eBay going cheap. Thanks.

Jamie_uk Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Not much help but my 2010 Impreza does this aswell. Can only presume people before used to jam the thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Can't say I've had a issue with either my 97 UK turbo or my 94 sti but both of those were under 90k mls . Just thought i mention that The early classic uk's and jdms have the indicator stalks on the opposite sides and I'm not sure if they're universal ( so try to get 1 off the same year /version ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 not had that myself with 08 models - pull the wheel off and dash cowl - easy job and check all the tabs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectra Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 OK, so a quick update. Got a new stalk unit and popped it in but same problem...... If I turn the wheel over a full rotation it will cancel but under normal driving conditions it won't budge. I'm starting to wonder if it has a steering column from a jdm (as Savage mentioned they have the indicators on the other side). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
