I don't understand the small diameter steel shaft issue... maybe it doesn't apply to my 1977 version? On, or about, the knob, I really couldn't spot any metal part or shaft... Anyway, the (second hand!) stock foam ring has been fit in the mean time, without any problems. I followed the...

Mine is a 1977. Hmm. Just tried turning it in the reverse way: I only hear a repetitive click every revolution, so that doesn't work. Holding the (plastic) shaft, and turning the knob doesn't release anything either (tried both directions). Looks to me like the plastic shaft and knob are one...

Does anybody know how to detach the plastic reset knob from the speedometer ?

Jayel, You are absolutely right ! Remark : I still had to cut out the connection via the Yellow/Red wire (pulled to ground via the secondary contacts in the turn switch). Conclusion: Yellow/Green should go, from the turn relay, straight to ground, when the canceler unit is eliminated ...
