hi guys. not sure if this has been spoken about or not. i haev a S2 r33 97 model and if for example you put your blinker on to turn right as you come up to a roundabout and then turn the wheel to the left a little tooo far, the blinker will click off. not sure if this is meant to happen or if there is something wrong with the blinker assembly in my car? i have driven other cars before that this happens on but they were brand new so i'm assuming its meant to happen on some cars?

if it is then fair enough, but it is a bit of a pain sometimes so if skylines aren't meant to have this i'd like to know so i can fix it.

thanks

I also noticed that when getting my skyline... its bloody annoying to be honest. I think it may be a nissan thing, my mother-in-law had a maxima, and it also behaved the same way.

do you have an aftermarket boss kit and steering wheel? if so it not aligned correctly?

lol most cars do this.. there is a bush in your steering rack behind your steering wheel.. it has two protrusions that click the indicator off just in case you forget to turn it off.. you could always take it out and grind off the protrusions..

Nah, it's the standard wheel.

Hehe, i'll add that to the ever growing list of improvements i'd like to make to the car one-day :P

yes but most cars blinkers will stay on when you click it the wrong way though. thats the way it is in most cars in the world. just seems that a couple cars i have driven lately do it the way my skyline does. if its the way it is standard then i guess i'll just deal with it i guess. it becomes habit after a while anyway because you expect it to happen.

nope i dissagree, most cars do what the nissan does, off the top of my head ford transit van does it, all nissans to my knowledge do it, early 90's magnas do it (not sure of the newer ones) kia rios and sportage do it, excel did it, rolls royce silver spirit did it, 300e mercedes does it..... the only car that i have noticed that doidnt do it is my gf's new astra coupe, it has some electronic thing that turns the indicator off only when the car has been going straight for a few car lengths, its annoying at first but i think its a good idea. makes you indicate like a granny (if they would decide to indicate)

but its simple enough to adjust it and put it to your specs
