A motion translating assembly for a steering column mounted control stalk mechanically coupled to a vehicle turn signal switch coaxially mounted on the steering column and to a headlamp beam section or dimmer switch displaced longitudinally of the steering column and enabling selective independent actuation of the switches for swingable movement of the control stalk in a pair of mutually orthogonally related planes. The motion translating assembly is coupled to the switches in such manner as to permit the use of conventional commercially available forms of such switches without extensive modification or revision thereof.
