Larry923 Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 My turn signals quit auto canceling after I turn on my 82 XJ 400 Maxim is there a fuse blown? at the same time my speedometer quit too! bad day! the cable is good and greased and turns easy?
Moderator mervin Posted July 2, 2010 Moderator Posted July 2, 2010 get the speedo sorted and the self canceling will return there is a sensor in the back of the speedo that senses the distance travelled and cancel the flashers if it is the same as the RD,s

Moderator mervin Posted July 2, 2010 Moderator Posted July 2, 2010 get a new one or secondhand off ebay??
Ttaskmaster Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Can you not just manually cancel, like the rest of us?

Ttaskmaster Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Given how often I see cars that have not cancelled their indicators, I don't see the point myself.
Larry923 Posted August 11, 2010 Author Posted August 11, 2010 I disconnected the speedo cable at the wheel, hooked my electric drill to the cable put it in reverse and presto..my drill does 20mph! plus after a bit my right signal canceled! turned on the left blinker and after a bit off it went! So I bought a new speedometer drive and all is well! my auto cancelers work again! so all you with manual turn signals eat your heart out!
