Here’s the swapped in signal mechanism. Now the lever engages correctly, with a firm click we are all accustomed to.

However, that didn’t solve the lack of blinker...so I went to the fuse block and tried a a different flasher; the one I am pointing to..this did the trick.

If I confused you about the flasher I replaced earlier, it was the one on the right, the hazard flasher. All is working well, now.
