replacing turn signal switch
 

i need to replace my turn signal switch i have the 3 stalk switch my question is can i purchase the 2 stalk switch and replace just what i need? if so is there a diy that someone could send me.
thanks

No, it is an assembly, the only stalk which separates from the assembly is the OBC stalk... and even that is not sold separately.

You can replace it with a two stalk, but then you lose the Cruise Control.

Suck it up and buy new from the dealer, sunset, etc., or get a used one from salvage.

Cheers!

I just went through this with a used 3 stalk from this awesome site. My TS's quit canceling, and hi beam disappeared. Found a broken plastic piece in the surround :mad: German bakelite???

Pretty easy, with these instructions:

If your lights stopped cancelling, it may not be the stalk, but the clockspring.

Checkout my thread when I had the problem:

If the piece you found looks like the larger piece in my first photo attachment, then your clockspring is broken.

thanks for the info iwill buy new 3 stalk switch from sunset and install with help from pictures you sent

Unless the Porsche is your daily driver, I wouldn't order the new stalks until you've opened things up. I didn't need new stalks in the end, but still installed the new one because I wanted to wire up the OBC. Might save yourself $200.

turn signal switch
 

can someone please send me the link to sunset parts for the switch assembly. i cant seem to find it on there site
thanks

I don't have a link, but I think the 4 stalk switch was:

6-613-219-10-EWC - although that may have been the wrong one for my car, as the surface with the labels was a matte finish instead of shiny like the original.

Airbag/clock spring: 996-652-211-00
