I wish it could be programmed like vw's for number of flashes before it shuts off. Good ol vagcom

I'd like this too. I don't make erratic lane changes, 3 flashes are not enough. I find my self holding the switch down when changing lanes. But I do love the way it returns back to the neutral position. Makes going from left to right turns quicker and easier

if you are in a roundabout dont you have the right of way? those things confuse me
It used to be the other way around over here, but nowadays it can be both ways. Therefore you have to check the traffic signs every time you approach a roundabout. We have tons of them now, since there is a policy to change crossings with traffic lights into small roundabouts without traffic lights

You want the one and only off-road American super truck to behave like a German engineer's wet dream? For shame.

I despise traffic circles/roundabouts.
The person who invented them should be shot at dawn.
No that's too late - midnight.
Still too late - he should be shot yesterday.

I don't agree. They actually save time, since you prevent unneccessary waiting for trafic lights. Nothing more frustrating then waiting for a traffic light when there is no other traffic around.

Without a trailer, it gives 3 flashes. With a trailer connected (7 pin), it gives 5 flashes. I wonder if there is a way to trick it into thinking there is always a trailer connected? That way it always gives 5 flashes per activation.

Maybe Noah can research his handy dandy wiring charts to see what would be involved to make that happen. Unless he's too busy doing....:busaballs:

not waiting on lights makes traffic continually move. I wish all intersections had round a bouts.

they are ask much safer, you never cross traffic which eleminates head on collisions,

just most americans are dumbfounded by how they work.

I still get 3 flashes with a trailer. Are you sure about the 5 flashes?
