Anyone else dislike the automatic turn signals?
#43
I have 2006 1200 sportster low, just got it and don't know anything about it, auto signals work really well, shut down after each turn.
Bombay suggests they might work by an accelerometer, does anybody really know how they work? I thought they might have a balance switch, no? mossenheim

The BAS is the same sensor that will detect that you may have laid down your bike and will kill the engine and other electrical systems until you stand back up your bike and cycle your ignition off and back on. Before resetting you will see "tlP" displayed on your odometer and will be stored in your error code history.

Inside your TSM (Turn Signal Module)/TSSM (Turn Signal/Security Module) unit on your bike is an item called a "Bank Angle Sensor" (BAS) that senses, among other thinks, when your bike tilts like in a turn. When it detects your bike tilting/leaning, as in a turn, the BAS tells the TSM/TSSM that you just made the turn and it cancels the turn signal. The turn signal will also turn off after a certain amount of time or distance traveled after the turn signal was first activated (again, controlled by your TSM/TSSM). That way, if you accidentally pushed the button or decided to not make the turn (and forgot to turn it back off) the TSM/TSSM will do it for you.
