Count me in this camp!When I changed lanes I'd put on the blinker (sending all the way up or down) and then I couldn't get the darn thing turned off. Every time I tried I'd end up with it blinking continuously in the other direction. My friends were in hysterics.
My month-old 3 works fine, but my brother, who is new to Tesla, picked up his 3 two weeks ago and he is having the same issue with his turn signals as you - only on the left turns. He's going in for service on that and a couple minor frunk/trunk lid alignment issues next week.
How do you compare the blinker stalk resistance to your other vehicles? I noticed that the Model 3 stalk has noticeably more resistance than my previous vehicle. This further complicated the adjustment period and process.
That's odd. Mine works quite well. Yours might need a little lubrication. You could try checking out a couple of the demo cars to compare.I find the resistance to get past the first detent to be annoyingly high. This occassiinally contributes to me accidentally turning on my brights (by accidentally pulling the stalk toward me) when all I’m trying to do is turn on my turn signal.
Welp, I did some testing... and... It's quite possibly my turn signal stalk is defective.
I have the exact same issue as @Eno Deb it turns out.
Testing:
- Left (Down) Light Press: Continuous
- Left (Down) Long Press: Continuous
- Left (Down) Light Press To Cancel Continuous Blinker: Does Not Cancel (Most likely because it's thinking I'm doing a Long Press)
- Right (Up) Light Press: 3 Blinks
- Right (Up) Long Press: Continuous
- Right (Up) Light Press To Cancel Continuous Blinker: Cancels

I have the exact same issue. Did you get a part replaced? Or just a software fix? I just took delivery of the car this week and this malfunction has been bothering me thinking it was me. Currently on the side of the road troubleshooting it and came to realize it is not me, but the car lol lol. @Eno Deb it turns out.
Testing:
- Left (Down) Light Press: Continuous
- Left (Down) Long Press: Continuous
- Left (Down) Light Press To Cancel Continuous Blinker: Does Not Cancel (Most likely because it's thinking I'm doing a Long Press)
Other notes:
- Right (Up) Light Press: 3 Blinks
- Right (Up) Long Press: Continuous
- Right (Up) Light Press To Cancel Continuous Blinker: Cancels
I'll be contacting the Service Center shortly to schedule. Thanks all!
- If I "Ever So Lightly"™ go Left (Down) on the stalk, I can get it to the 3-Blinks.
- Once the Left blinker is on Continuous, a Left (Down) Light press doesn't cancel, but if I do an "Ever So Lightly"™ Left Down, it'll stop blinking then suddenly "hiccup" back to Continuous.
- Only way I can cancel a Left Continuous blinker other than steering wheel motion, is to signal Right (Up) Light Press. But if I go hard, then now I'm Right blinker Continuous.
Along these lines, some people like CuriousG at Turn signal “discussion” seem to advocate making unsafe lane changes.No it isn't. A turn signal isn't there to tell people you're maneuvering, it's there to tell people that you intend to maneuver and that you're maneuvering (rather than driving badly). You shouldn't even make the maneuver until your signal has been on for 2 seconds in order to allow for reaction time of other drivers. By that time, 3 flashes would be done on average.
Add me to the list for this issue. I do wonder if it could be fixed with SW since all functions are present, just off on their behavior.Welp, I did some testing... and... It's quite possibly my turn signal stalk is defective.

Interesting. Do you know if this new part is already available or they are currently still using the old one when replacing the module? There are several reports on the forum from people who already got theirs replaced and it apparently solved the problem.I was just notified by my SC Manager that the entire steering column control module has been reworked by the factory and are releasing a new part revision to replace part # 1097662-00-K. I'm patiently waiting for the new revision that my SC ordered.
