faulty turn indicator switch

I suspect my wife has had a hand in this problem. The L/R turn indicator switch won't click back to the middle position after going round a corner. I suspect she has snapped something by pressing it the wrong way!

Does asnyone know how easy it would be for me to either fix the problem or install a replacement part?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Well, I've made a start.

Following the Haynes guide, I have removed drivers airbag and steering wheel.

But I still can't see what I'm looking for and the manual is a bit vague about it.

Can anyone tell me what the component looks like that cancels the indicator stalk?

Do I need to strip down the steering more to get at it?

Any help would be much appreciated.
