Excel indicator stalk 1984

Has anyone dismantled one of these?

Mine is relatively new, only a few years old and 240miles use. However the stalk will not stay in position in either Left or right positions. Works if I hold it in position. Bit wary of talking apart as I ventured down that path with wiper switch and watched as a small spring took off down the road, never to be seen again

Are you sure the ring with the protrusion that cancels the indicators as you turn the wheel is correctly position and not sliding/jammed?

That's what I was going to say!

Ok,
Will check that. RH seems to hold, LH nothing at all.
Both were working fine last time I drove her.

Thanks

It is the stalk, as I removed it and only the RH side holds about 60% of the time. LH doesn't click in at all.
Can it be opened for fault finding?

TIA
