Turn signals not cancelling, missing part?

Flush with the success of fixing my intermittent dash blinder indicator, I turned to the issue of the non-cancelling turn signal. Scanning the archives it seems to be straight forward, a little ring with a nubbing as it rotates should trip the turn signal. With my right side stalk, it should be at 3 o'clock.

Sounds easy, so lets rip the covers off. And this is what I find. I see the little lever from the turn signal switch, but no ring as described. Just a coiled spring on the shaft. Can't really find a good picture or diagram of it. The PO put a Momo wheel on . Could he have sacrificed the ring as part of the Momo conversion?

Here's a pic. Can the missing piece (or more) be reattached? And can somebody point me to the part number? Thanks again.

What do you need that luxury for anyway? With a little practice an alert pilot can get good at manually canceling the blinkers.

Ah, I'm a racer and we're used to dealing with broken and ill-handling cars. No 3rd gear, no problem. No brakes, just pump them and turn anyway. Within 5 minutes of owning the bimmer I was unconsiously turning the wheel, removing right hand to cancel blinkers, dropping hand to gear lever, double clutching to avoid the bad 2nd gear synchro and going down the road.

But my racecar is just a tool to get the job done. The '02 is my hobby and I want to fix the bad things. It's a sickness that a lot of us seem to share.

BTW, I know you were just kidding me :)

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
