SP doesn't sell direct to the public.  They (the site) will direct you to a local auto parts supplier.  Might be cheaper than Rock Auto.  You'd be saving the shipping, I guess.

Could not find them at the Paddock
Year One has them listed for:
FD93102 1970-1974 B-body and 1971-1974 E-body turn signal switch. New Chrysler. 
$99.00

thanks - i will try a local dealer - i did see it on ebay for $49 dollars plus $9 shipping.  i did notice one has 2 cables and another had only one cable - i guess i need to take it out of steering column and check it for myself.

go to auto zone and get one for a 79 dodge truck if your car is a driver.  Put one in my 70 charger, the plug is a diffrent color for the truck and you have to trim the flasher switch (black button on side) a little with a razor blade, not seen when it's installed. They were 24.99 last year.

that's what I'm saying about plugs... my car has originally one plug and replacement parts are two plugs... Underdash harnesses are just one plug... why is that ?

Is the same switch used for different applications?

i guess it turns on the front blinker, hood blinker and rear blinker.  maybe that is why there are 2 cable connectors.

Ghoste

But is it used in something other than 74 Chargers?

gtx6970

It's superseded part and I believe the extra plug is for key buzzers on some models

Chryco Psycho

Standard has them too for about $27 part # TW 7 , I believe it is the same make the Dealers carry

That's the website I posted


do i need a steering wheel puller to get to the turn signal switch??

Nacho-RT74

Yes. Also remove the lower bracket and plastic cover down the column to remove the wiring easily from top. Also install the new one.

gtx6970: Key in buzzer is attached on to ignition switch wiring plug on 71/74... laters has its own and separated plug from rest of harnesses.

about the two different plugs I already got the answer:
http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,19498.0.html
If you look at pic, three last wires on longer plug are the same than the smaller plug

All Passenger Mopars use the same assembly, since column collars and bearings are the same.
