i think the villages uses a different steering column to accomodate the turn signals, striker speedometer,etc
I know theres a plastic sleeve that the wheel is screwed to that has cogs that activate a plastic pill looking thing to trip the turn signal off
thanks for the response though
It sounds like unless the trip mechanism you mention can be duplicated you will not be able to get the self cancelling function. Now there is a company called Signal Dynamics that sell 3 levels of self cancelling turn signals, basic, basic with brake lights, and basic with brakes lights and 4 way flashers. As I recall these go for around $100 to $150 and need to be wired into the existing wiring harness.
If you are interested in bringing your cart and the old steering wheel, maybe I can fabricate a part, photos would be great.
