M Tech II wheel binding

[bmws50b30]

I replaced my airbag wheel and have all the necessary spacer. Everything work except the wheel hits this "thing". I've search and saw that I have to pull this thing out. If I do this will the turn signal return function still work? Is there a different solution?

The steering wheels turns fine but it makes a clicking sound everytime it hits this thing that sticks out. Picture show the plastic sticking out because the turn signal is engaged. it goes in a little if the turn signal is not engaged but still hits the wheel. Thanks.

get rid of that white thing at 11 oclock in that picture

the piece you have circled should stay there, thats the auto-cancel on the turn signals

[bmws50b30]

what he said :)

I push the plastic pin in there, break of a toothpick and shove it in to there so that it stays in its place.

good idea just in case the airbag wheel goes back (not that it will) ;D

Thanks all
