Turn and Lane-Change Signals
An arrow on the instrument

Move the lever all the way up or down to signal a turn.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to ash
to signal a lane change. Hold it there until the lane
change is complete.
The lever returns to its starting position when it is
released.
If after signaling a turn or a lane change the arrows
ash rapidly or do not come on, a signal bulb may be
burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. For bulb replacement, seeTaillamps,
Turn Signal, Stoplamps and Back-up Lamps on
page 5-50. For a blown fuse or circuit breaker, see
Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-109.
