I'd be surprised if that was the problem. In 40 years I've never sold one.  Most likely the turn signal switch.

...back on the road.

Now I realize the turn signals won't cancel.

A little reading-- apparently this part is the "cancel cam"

126-462-00-51

Anyone swapped one out?? Looks to be just under the steering wheel, correct??
