Boxer Indicators

Has anyone had problems with not being able to auto correct indicators on a boxer after a turn is made.?
I have recently had difficulty in 'neutralising' the indicator lever when just using it to overtake another vehicle..
great frustration as it wanders from left to right indication!!
Garage says - no problem.

if its the same as my Ducato, just flick the lever upwards (without locking it) and it should flash five times...just right for overtaking..

Sadly this is a well known problem (I have it on my 2014 Boxer). There is no obvious solution and it is potentially confusing for other road users.

Thank you both, might revert to hand signals if they are still legal!!

Same here, I often curse myself for what I believed to be a clumsy operation. Now I know I'm not the only one.

Thankfully I've never had this issue with my Peugeot van, but my work BMWs were horrendous for this.

Yep - me too. A pain in the backside, and potentially dangerous.

Another example of totally unnecessary "automation". Much easier to shove the lever up or down for a few clicks of the indicator, then push it back. You were in control then - not the blasted machinery!!

On VW T5/T6s it's possible to turn this feature off (it's called "Comfort Indicator" if I recall correctly) or to change the number of flashes that it automatically makes. I suspect that most vans will be similar (i.e. based on common Bosch parts).

i have exactly the same problem...when i dip the lights indicators flash 4 or 5 times...far too sensitive
