How to distinguish between left and right turn signals on the turn signal lever?
1 Answers
To activate the right turn signal, pull the turn signal lever upward; to activate the left turn signal, pull it downward. Below is a detailed introduction to car turn signals: 1. The turn signal switch is generally installed on the left side of the steering wheel, and its operation method can be summarized as 'up for right, down for left.' 2. While driving, if you observe a need to turn ahead, be sure to activate the turn signal about 10 seconds in advance to alert following vehicles to take timely measures such as slowing down, stopping, etc., to avoid collisions or rear-end accidents. However, activating the turn signal too far in advance may cause visual fatigue for following vehicles. Additional information: 1. Turn off hazard lights before using turn signals (if the vehicle lacks turn signal priority function): Many car models do not have a turn signal priority function, so if you need to use the turn signal while the hazard lights are on, you should first turn off the hazard lights before activating the turn signal switch. 2. Quickly identifying turn signal malfunctions: Turn signals are divided into contact-type flashers and non-contact-type flashers. When a contact-type turn signal fails, the corresponding turn signal indicator on the dashboard will stop blinking. When a non-contact-type turn signal fails, the corresponding dashboard indicator will blink at a faster frequency.
