I'll try the tape. If that doesn't do it, I'll live with it for now.
Thx, guys.

Also try loosening the 8mm bolt underneath that holds the switch assembly to the steering column and pulling the whole thing forward just a little bit. It might be enough to let the pin on the wheel hit the white lever that does the cancelling. If you take the wheel off and test the cancelling with a screw driver or something and it works, this is probably your problem.

Well, I wouldn't have beleived it...
I was really all set to buy a new switch assy - but thought I'd check here first.

Sure enough, the tape trick did it! I pulled the wheel, and the little white trigger worked fine so I knew the switch gear was OK. I tried a couple of things, but the tape trick worked. In my toolbox, I found soume "aluminized" tape with a peel off backing which seems ideal for this. Hopefully, it will be fairly permanent.
BTW, I think the problem ultimately is with the aftermarket hub. Obviously the 'tang" is too small. It is from AJ Racing in SD and used to mount their 930S wheel (which I have on both cars and love).

Again, the Rennlist saves me!

is there a special process to get the steering wheel off on a car equipped with airbags?

Pull the airbag fuse and let it sit for at least 30 minutes before starting dissasembly. Otherwise it's pretty much the same. Takes about 5 minutes to actually remove the wheel.
