Turn signal switch

Do you have a turn signal switch for a 66 Olds 98 with tilt wheel and cornering lights? Or something that will allow the turn signals to work? It says Delco-Remy DR3-83 on the part with the spring.

These are hard to find. I copied this from another post I answered.
These can be carefully disassembled and cleaned. My signal switch has extra contacts for corner lamps. Carefully pry away metal tabs and it comes apart. I did it over a small pan. It contains springs and *****. Cleaned it, lubed slightly with di-electric grease, re-assembled, and adjusted it.
They are adjustable in their mounting holes. They are hard to find, more so if you have corner lamps.

Thanks so much for that info! Bad news: Someone tried fixing my switch and broke off parts. Good news: You can find them at Yesteryear Auto Parts in Florida. sales@yesteryearautoparts.com (Tell Dave the owner that Greg with the 66 Olds sent ya!) http://www.yesteryearautoparts.com

Broke?
That's what JB Weld is for.

According to the PN manual, it's

1993667, Gr. 2.895

Quite the variety of switches there, and that's a hard to find combo. Why did they not just use more of one type? Jeeez.

Glad to know where to get them
I will add this info to the PN database for future use.
