How Does The Turn Signal Know When To Stop Blinking?

[JTJersey]

This is on my '21 Freewheeler. I think it's pretty cool that the turn signals will cancel their blinking shortly after making a turn. Even in a very shallow right hand turn, the kind where you don't even need to slow down, it still knows the turn is completed and quits blinking. I've noticed though that when I get home and I have to make the hard right into my driveway off the street, then a hard "S" turn around my Jeep to go through the gate and then swing right to line up for the garage that the signal does NOT turn off, even after I'm stopped. Is there a sensor that tells the trike that your not on the road? Does it have GPS and is tracking my moves? What triggers it?

It’s the angle of the dangle and distance traveled....

Yes as stated its tied to the odometer. The distance is what turns it off.

Diagnostic trees/ flow charts are one in the same, Old school , My Dad taught me this and I followed in his foot steps and became a Master certified tech at 27 years old

It is more than distance traveled, there is also a motion sensor in the security module

Yes, if you look at the flow chart you will see exactly how this works

You can also click the signal button once after you have made your turn or lane change, this will also cancel; the signal

Happy riding with the knowledge of the owners manual. Sometimes the MOCO does get it right

The volume control in the speedometer also controls turn signals. At least it did on our old FXRT.
