Turn Signal - when does the self cancelling signal cancel?

[Adolfo]

2014 RT S new owner, so when does the self cancelling signal cancel, like the next day?:yikes:

Pg 21 of your operator's guide.

The manual says that when the motor is running, the turn signal will automatically turn off after 30 seconds. Very misleading! After a ‘shallow’ turn, you must turn if off yourself.....same thing for a lane change. IT WILL NOT automatically turn off after 30 seconds, or at least mine won’t.

:agree: ..... It is what it is .... poorly made or poorly designed .... lots and lots of complaints about them ..... Mike :thumbup:

So, it's not a GoldWing. The common complaint on their auto-cancel was that it acted too soon.

The cancel is not too good either wearing gloves, left, right, left, right then off. (maybe)

 

[Bfromla]

All too often
So

Mine does! It may be more than 30 seconds though. I've never timed it. It's longer than I like!

Never have had a problem with winter or summer gloves.

Idaho, do you mean to tell me that if you signal a lane change that your signal light will self cancel shortly after? or are you no longer on your ‘14 RTS?

I think my Harley’s were made at the same place:banghead:

With time, yes.

Why not just turn it off yourself?

Look at the original post....he’s a new owner trying to learn about his new to him spyder, so he came to us asking questions. Is that so wrong?

 

[Yabbadabbadoo]

30 seconds feels like a very long time when your driving down the road with the blinker on.

People need to mind their own businesses, not where I'm going. Therefore, I do Not use turn signals.
Cheers!

My '14 self-cancelling seems to work well on 90 degree turns well enough, but anything else - not so much. And yes, I've run into the same issue when trying to manually turn them off - turn on the opposite signal, then maybe off.

Just the cheap parts

After this thread arose I was on a long stretch of U.S. 29 in VA and pressed my turn signal button for a right turn or lane change and just let it blink until it self-cancelled and it did so in about 30 seconds.

Interesting. I’ve never left mine go quite that long. Guess I’m gonna have yo try it!
