Default turn signal doesnt go off by itself?

Ok so here's the situation when you turn on the turn signal and turn
the turn signal should stop on its own, but it doesnt I have to do it manually,


Now I do have one of those after market wheels on there.

So im guessing would it have something to do with the fact that my wheel
isnt stock,
Or would it be the switch its self?

There is a ring in the column that is supposed to catch and cancell the signal. Either yours was removed to mount the aftermarket wheel, or the 'tang' is broken. Does it fail to cancell both left and right signals?

Can you get your hands on a factory steering wheel? Look on the backside of it's hub for a little lever that trips the mechanism to cancel the signal. Try to fabricate something similar on your steeringwheel hub.

has anyone recreated the turn signal cut off switch

I looked at parts drawings (hondaautomotiveparts.com) but it doesn't show enough detail to see what's needed. Besides, it might be different depending on what year is your car??

Look for a couple little levers coming from the turn-signal switch assembly. The steering wheel needs a tab that bumps against those levers.
