Hello All,
Disassembling the steering head, shaft, etc. Scratching my head though on the turn signal switch removal. Is there a hidden set screw I just don't see?

❏ 1. Remove the clip and spring on the turn signal stud and remove the turn signal mechanism from the center of the steering column tube flange (p/n 3511).
❏ 2. Remove the two turn signal switch screws then remove the 3 screws holding the steering column shield (p/n 3669) to the flange (p/n 3511).

The spring and clip were not an issue but the mechanism does not want to lift vertically off the turnsignal shaft. Corrosion down in there I suppose so will try and get some lube down in there over night.
