Right this may be a bit confusing....

On my mini when you push the indicator stalk down a little bit it the indicators will flash and then go off....

On my old mini they flahed 3 times but on my new one they only flash once! Does anybody know how to change it?

Sorry about the TERRIBLE explination! silent

R56 ?

1) lightly press down and hold the stalk will flash until you take your hand off

2) Fully Click down will flash until you have turned

Is that what you mean ???

If you quickly/lightly (not full click) push it down and let go yes - its designed for quick lane changes oppose to indicating left or right on main road, traffic lights etc Wink

Im sure someone like Mike and NewMINIStuff could give it ago - some thing i have never really heard someone raise issues about though to be honest ....... scratch

But why don't you just do the full click down if you are worried about warning other drivers Razz

You need to Reprogram it in the OnBoard Computer - The Default is 1 flash you can change it to 3. Its in the Manual

If you didn't use the Same Key, because the program is "Individual" to that key so If you program it with one key then use the "spare" it will change to the original settings
