I don't have the orginal steering wheel and the turn signal must be manually returned to the neutral/center position after each turn. Needless to say, I don't always remember to do that.

Move to Oahu, and only drive on the Windward side, or Ballard (area near Seattle, WA). Then you don't have to worry about resetting your turn signal until it's time to turn again. :lol:

Sounds like the roll pin is missing. Multiple threads here on steering wheels and turn switch function.

The missing roll pin would cause the grinding??

Now that you mention it........
If the roll pin has moved it may be causing both the grinding and the need to manually return the stalk.

Thanks for that...I need a bit of time to investigate. My real job(s) keep me busy during the week.

Aloha,
