I fixed the turn signal switch on a 10yr old Toyota Corolla. In the end, I needed to repair a switch contact, because the common contact had worn down too much. They should beef it up since at minimum it sees twice the amount of use than the side contacts. When you look at the switch you can see plastic stops that are used to keep one of the spring loaded contacts balanced when not in use. It is these that actually also prevent the switch from working when the contact height has decreased. The symptom was that when the switch was actuated at a normal or fast speed it didn't work in one direction, it made a fast clicking sound with no turn lights on. It started over a year ago, very rarely and randomly showing this behaviour. I've owned a 20 year old chev and ford and neither had the turn signal wear out hehe ;) However, I am impressed that you are able to get inside this switch via screws. I've heard a rumour that newer switches are permanently closed. The dealership wanted a lot of money for a new part so thought I'd try a fix first.
