Turn Signals: Description and Operation


TURN-SIGNAL LIGHT
When the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position and turn-signal light switch is placed in the ON position for right or left turn-signaling, the system generates turn-signal light drive signals (flashing signals). The system also notifies of a blown turn-signal light bulb by shortening the flashing intervals of the corresponding indicator light.
