Anyone have the part numbers to the left and right blinker return springs? Searches came up with nothing.

 

blinker return spring?You mean what makes the lever go back to off.If so i think its part of the signal light switch.Its sorta a flat type looking thing,like a mono leaf right?Junkyard time.

 

No, they're springs in the steering column, somewhat L shaped with a spring loop at the corner of the L. Yes, they do make the blinker turn to off.

 

I think those are in the signal switch though.I dont think there is a part #.You may have to swap the switch?

 

They're not in the switch, they're in the column itself. I don't know the names of all the parts in there, but they sit in a round plastic piece that you can remove from the column. I've swapped them before but the ones I put in a while back are now going bad, so I wish to get new ones instead of used. If they come as part of a bigger PN, that's fine too, as long as I can get new pieces. I just need the PNs though.

 

You definitely do not have to swap the switch, as I replaced mine last week. I live across the road from a chevy dealership and just asked the parts guy for them. He brought out a box full of them, and I'm not sure they're even Camaro specific. The right side spring is red, the left is blue. I have a few spare sets as well (since they cost me $3 CDN/set) but there's no indication of a P/N since they're loose. I'd suggest simply going into a dealership and asking for them. If you have no luck, I can go ask across the road tomorrow and find out for you.

 

If you have Paypal, I'll happily take a set off your hands.

 

these are the kinda things I wish i could understand why they go bad :P
your going thru your 2nd set of signal return springs now?? thats weird
mine feel pretty good im thinking im not going to see the day i have to replace the return springs, lets hope cos that would just be silly

 

Yup second set. This car was not maintained at all prior to me buying it. Everything went bad on this car. Both return springs broke so I pulled them out of my old 84 Sport Coupe. Now one of those is broken.

I think I'll just go to a dealership around here. I noticed you're in Canada, RestoRoc89, and I don't plan on paying shipping for that. LOL

 

hehe, yeah, I figure it's probably not worth 20 bucks brokerage to get some springs. Your dealer should have them quite cheaply. It's a part the wears out with surprising frequency. Sometimes they just fall out into the steering column as well.

 

The assembly is called a "Canceling Cam" and the springs are called "Preload Springs"...GM Universal...you can get 'em at any parts store in the HELP boxes
