Self canceling turn signals....question?????

I bet your shoulder hurts now, leaving your arm out the window that long, damn. When its cold, i dont have turn signals.. F them.

what an asshole cop, and yes thats coming from a cop. He was just jealous of your ride.

Good luck man.

 

Links to a couple of the self-canceling flashers. Ouch, over a hundred bucks!

Here's instructions I found on one of the motorcycle sites for making a nifty piezo beeper with about $5 worth of parts from Radio Shack:

I'm not sure how either of these will work when you put on the emergency flashers, but the old Signal Stat 900 has gotten the best of me more than I care to admit. This is going to be my weekend's project. If you don't want to fool around making it, he sells them on ebay for $25.

 

i got a flasher with a chime in it from a chrysler newyorker because my indicators arent visible in daylight and mine doesnt reset on LH turns. its a pleasant bell noise. "ding-ding-ding-ding"

 

Oh shit I got the one that goes-Bong,Bong,Bong. LOL

 

Dont run one, it didnt have one from the factory

 

Splice the flasher up to your horn, you will never forget to turn it off.

I had an old bronco where the cancellation mechanism inside the column was trashed that I merely spliced in a buzzer from radio shack. That did the trick for me.

I have been running this one on my A for about 6 years. Easy to use and self cancels and has hazard flashers too.

 

I have a Speedway pushbutton timed signal on a car,and its very reliableeasy to install,and doesnt show.I recommend it. The longer you hold the button the longer it flashes. Push both buttons and its emergency flashers.

 

Mine goes-Binka-Binka-Binka...

Nothing's ever easy. Radio Shack doesn't keep the rectifiers in the store. I ran out to NAPA and got one of the loud flashers instead. They're supposed to be five times louder than normal. Not as traditional as Elvis, but hopefully that will be enough to let me know my blinker is on

Just move to California - nobody uses turn signals and new California spec. vehicles are delivered with factory 'TSD - Turn Signal Delete' option.

 

Use a buzzer. I have. It's annoying as hell, and after you make your turn it's pleasurable as sex to have it off. Trust me. I used one in my Chevy pickup for years. (I took it our of a mid-eighties GM car.) Riders were annoyed as hell with . "What's that noise?" they would ask when I made a turn. There's a certain amount of masochism in it, that turns into sadism with riders. A perfectly good way to spend an afternoon when you're asked to give someone a ride and you really don't want to. I found myself driving in circles just to irritate them. Go for it. You'll wonder why you waited so long. And worries about the fuzz will disappear in a haze. Man, how can life get any better?

 

Turns out the NAPA "loud flasher" wasn't very loud and it was only a two terminal flasher. I couldn't use it or one of the chime flashers as the SignalStat 900 takes a three spade flasher to work the indicator. As has been mentioned several times in the thread, I ended up putting the Radio Shack piezo beeper #273-060 I purchased to use with the rectifier across the flasher power and light terminals. The only down side is that it beeps for the emergeny flasher too but I guess that isn't really a bad thing.

 

another fun option would be to acquire a couple hazard flashers and switches and wire one to each side of the car.
