Triple turn signal

Attilio · Post by **Attilio** » Sat Dec 16, 2017 8:10 pm

Hi,

I noticed that my Z4MC (57 reg Nov 2007) does not have the triple turn signal functionality. It seems quite odd as even my 06 3 series had it.

Is it a malfunction of some component or something that esquires setting/coding? My car had the battery changed by the previous owner and I wonder if this is some setting that got lost when the older battery died.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
A

Needs coding. Can be done on any face lift model.

If you have an intravee can also be set on that.

^ this, to code you will need NCS or Carly.

Thanks guys,

Will see if my indie friend can do that coding (and the follow me home headlights).

After all I paid the dealer for the diff and handbrake will try and save a little (hopefully possible)

What’s an “intravee”?

What is a triple turn signal?

Ok,

Used google and found out about NCS... guess I will need a cable to interface laptop and car via the OBD2 port...
Seems simple enough for a DIY job...actually on second thought: maybe best if left to an expert: I might end up with a confused car!

When you press the indicator stalk but not enough for it to latch, an the indicator will flash 3 times

Intravee
It goes in place of the CD changer, allows you to plug in a iPod or iPhone , if you have nav you get track info, but it also allows some coding options, welcome and leave lights an you can select which lights are used,
The triple flash on the indicator's, although I think you can determine how many times it flashes, it will display measured distance on nav screen for pdc

No use in Cornwall, no motorway

No use in a BMW either, standards to maintain. Never let the trolley people know your going to cut them up.

I've wanted to get this done as well and I've got intravee. Anyone got a guide as to how to do it through intravee and maybe what other functions can be done through it? Thanks.
