Turn signal mode change since last OTA

[AntonM]

I've always had my turn signals set to give 3-flashes-and-stop when I press the lever to the first click, which is useful in town.

Since the last OTA (2024.14.9) that stopped working - moving the lever to first click now does the same as moving the lever all the way. I had a look through the menus but couldn't see a setting for this. Or am I missing something?

Try to see if 'Auto Cancel' is set under Settings > Lights > Turn Signals. It might be the reason why.

I’ve noticed this myself. Not sure why they’ve done that.

It changed a few updates ago. Auto cancel now keeps the half press indicator running until you've changed lanes or taken an exit etc. It uses the camera to detect the change. You can turn the feature off in the menu and go back to 3-flashes instead.

I have only noticed this since the most recent update. About 10 times over the weekend I was trying to cancel indicators after changing lanes and sometimes over correcting and so continuing with the the other indicator on. It's been a real pain, will try to turn the feature off later.

Quite a few people have experienced this and been confused by it. I have no idea why Tesla switched this on for people, as the option has been available for quite a while (defaulted to "off").

Personally, I don't see the benefit of switching Auto-Cancel off. With it on, you never have to fully press the indicator stalk at all and it's accurate 90% of the time with lane changes. If going round a roundabout, half press down (or up) then a full press in the opposite direction upon exit - couldn't be easier.

Same pinch

Personally, I think 5 flashes is optimum.

Agreed, one of the feature I missed on my Ioniq 5. But I also find Tesla's auto-cancel to be great in 90% of the situation, as mentioned @QuanTim

Obviously with newer cars like Highland they need this to work well as you only have a button to indicate so no half or full press. However I always used this on the wife’s M3 before I got my Highland and found as others that it works 90%+ of the time just as you’d want. Other times you just need to push in same direction to cancel them out.

Thanks for pointing out how to get me back to working turn signals. Not at all a fan of this Auto Cancel mode. 90% of my signals are manual where I just hold the stalk halfway and when I release they instantly stop in case I need to cancel the lane change.
