Indicator Stalk

[trufflehunt]

Indicator stalk is playing up, with the random indications problem.

The car has sat nav, so the push button on the end functions to repeat
the last sat nav voice instruction, rather than the more usual horn button.

Almost every replacement on eBay seems to have a horn.

In Service Box, for my car, the part no. is given as 625382, whereas the typical
stalk with horn seems to be 625368.

I no longer use the sat nav, as the CD reader is wonky, so does anyone know if
I can just swap in a stalk with the horn. No need for it to actually work, as I always
use the steering wheel push ?

These people know their COM2000 units, very helpful if you phone them too:

Just an update to this.

I've spent the last few weeks trying to find a second-user one of these stalks.
I also tracked back through all the completed auctions on eBay to see if any had appeared in the
recent past. Not a single one, going back many months.

So I started emailing the sellers of the 'horn' type stalks, to see if they had any of my type sitting around.
Eventually, a seller of mostly Coupe bits, after I said that the part was common to coupes, saloons,and estates..
found that he did have some of the part I needed. And said he would list it for me..

There was several days delay in doing so. In the meantime, the random indications from mine were becoming
so frequent that I pulled it out of the car, and sprayed WD40 into every part of it I was able to.
Shook it, drained it, refitted it to the car.

No more random indications for the last couple of days.

Immediately after I refitted the stalk, message from the eBay seller arrived. He'd listed the part.

This is it....

I haven't received it yet, so will post again to confirm that in the conversation, nothing was misunderstood, and he's sent the right part.
(Not sure what the reference to automatic headlights is).

The part no that I'm hoping he's sent is 96357055ZL

Here's mine..

That looks like the right part - the 306, 806 and similar aged Citroens all have a horn push on the stalk, whereas the 406 horn is on the steering wheel so this button is used to activate other things, auto lights for example.

Correct part number.
All good.
