Turn Signal Not Cancelling Autopilot-Sometimes

[Radlaw]

When I'm on navigation and autopilot (I do not have NOA) and turn the turn signal full on, it does not cancel autopilot. However, if NOT on navigation and autopilot, it does cancel autopilot. Is that how it's supposed to work? If so, why? I would think it would cancel autopilot in both instances. What am I missing?

I didn’t even know you could disengage autopilot with the stalk? How do you do it?

I have noticed it too. Not sure if there is any valid reason for it or just a bug. I have also noticed the turn signal some times not disengaging after 3 cycles even when i did the half push. More bugs i suppose.

@hydro 481 on cars without full AP, when on auto steer, turn signal is supposed to disengage auto steer, so you can turn manually without having to over power auto steer. Also, you can disengage AP entirely if you push the AP stalk up.

With AP the turn signal has never disabled AP or lane keeping. It DOES drastically reduce the force needed to break it though.

According to my experience during thousands of miles of Model 3 ownership, you use the gear selector stalk to cancel (and initiate) AP. I was not aware that activating the turn signal cancelled AP.

I was not aware of that either!

I believe this is a behavior of base Autopilot. Those of us with EAP or FSD won’t experience it.

I rarely use navigation and often use autosteer (no EAP/FSD), and I feel like the turn signal cancels autosteer maybe 3 times out of 4. Does seem like a minor bug.

What do you mean by 'full AP'?

How do you cancel AP with the stalk? Push it up? I always canceled by tapping the brakes.

I should have said FSD/ EAP.

Yep, push it up... at least on my M3 with basic AP, it cancels AP/AS.
