"How To" Remove Indicator Stalk VT-VX *Detailed*

[Swanky]

Thanks for an awesome write up.

I have a cruise control issue with my VX Acclaim Series II. I read somewhere that it may be the indicator stalk (cruise light comes on, but cruise doesn't engage).

I went to Just Commodore Spares, picked up a brand new second hand stalk, had it installed within 10 minutes. Unfortunately it hasn't solved my problem, and I now have a spare indicator stalk, but damn it was easy thanks to such an awesome write up.

My search will start properly now I've registered here. Thanks a million for the write up.

i really hate the look of the VT-VX stalks.. is it possible to put a stalk from a vy-vz in? do they match up the same when connecting

aussieakito, the stalk design you really hate the look of are VR-VX Series 1, when the Series 2 VX came out Holden introduced the new stalk design, which is used up until VZ.

To answer your question, Yes it is possible, I've put VX-VZ stalks in my VT (SO much nicer!) But they don't much up the same when connected, you need to rewire new looms for the VX-VZ stalks. As far as rewiring goes, its pretty straight forward, crimp/solder blue wire to blue wire, red wire to red wire, etc. etc.

Top of the line how to. Had all the problems of every other member, all other drivers must of thought who is this complete wanker that keeps on flashing everyone. After a quick trip to the wreckers and $10 less in the pocket, 5min to read the how to and only 10 min to replace another satisfied customer.
Thanks Ozzie.
