What's the reason for the right turn signal not working on a 2019 Roewe i5?
3 Answers
This situation is generally caused by two reasons: either the flasher relay is damaged, or the turn signal fuse has blown. The former can be replaced by yourself, while the latter requires a careful inspection of the turn signal circuit for any short circuits before replacing the turn signal fuse. Additionally, since flasher relays vary depending on the vehicle model, it's important to purchase a matching flasher relay for your specific model. Below is some relevant information about the Roewe i5: 1. Exterior Design. The Roewe i5 is a compact sports sedan. Based on the Rhythm Design concept, it features an upgraded winged dynamic black front grille, arrow-feather black pupil LED headlights, radiant black pupil LED taillights, cool black sharp-style alloy wheels, and German Continental high-performance red calipers. 2. Powertrain. The Roewe i5 is equipped with SAIC's Blue Core 1.5TGI in-cylinder direct injection turbocharged engine, paired with a 7-speed TST intelligent dual-clutch transmission. It delivers a peak power of 124kW, accelerates from 0-100km/h in 7.8 seconds, and has a fuel consumption of 5.7L per 100km.
My car had a similar issue before—the right turn signal not working usually starts with checking the bulb. It’s normal for the filament to burn out after prolonged use. Last time on the highway, I encountered this and got super nervous, as failing to send turn signals can easily cause rear-end collisions. Checking the fuse box is also simple—most cars have a diagram under the driver’s seat. If a fuse is blown, replacing it costs just a few bucks. Poor wiring connections often happen; try wiggling the plug to see if it lights up, or check if the relay is responding—Roewe i5’s design sometimes leads to loose or dusty sockets. If nothing improves, the control module might be acting up, but that’s rare. I suggest not delaying repairs—night driving doubles the risk. It’s best to pull over, turn on hazard lights, and troubleshoot. Safety first, and don’t overlook small issues like this—traffic regulations emphasize it too. Bulb replacement is low-cost and can be DIY’d in half an hour.
I often tinker with my car myself. If the right turn signal malfunctions, I definitely check the bulb first. The 2019 Roewe i5 has an independent light on that side, so try replacing the bulb yourself—it costs less than ten bucks. The fuse is a key point; if it blows, the light will go out. You can find the corresponding slot in the fuse box under the hood or dashboard—just pull it out and check if it's burnt. Don’t overlook wiring issues either; a loose plug or rust can often be fixed by cleaning. Relay failures sometimes only affect one side—use a multimeter to check voltage and confirm connectivity. Remember to disconnect the power before working to prevent electric shock. I once had a car with the same issue—opening it up myself revealed oxidized contacts, and polishing them fixed it. For prevention, wash your car regularly to avoid mud and dirt invading the lighting system.
