Toronado 1970 Turn Switch

Hi people,
the turn switch of my 1970 Toronado make some trouble.
With headlights on, it is impossible to set a turn light. The fuse for the tail-light and turn lights burns immediately.
Without headlights there is no problem, .....or driving without turn lights.
We´ve tryed some possibilities and found that only the turn switch is the problem.
But now there is a bigger problem. It is not possible to buy a new turn switch for my car. @ Rockauto there are only switches for cars without tilt and telescopic steering wheels and cornering lights. but my toronado has both.
Is there anyone who had already this problem...... and a solution?
thanks for answering
best regards from germany

My guess is that a standard switch would work, but no turn lights. Maybe combine parts from
them both to make what you really want. Bruce Roe

maybe your problem is coming from cornering ligts. Try to disconnect it and see if the problem still there...

I also have turn lights but they serve no practical purpose what so ever, its nice to have everything working but not when going cost you a lot of time and money.
