Can't Hear Turn Signals (normal?)

[jmatero]

I'm unable to hear the turn signal "clicks" unless the car is stopped and parked somewhere quiet... like my driveway... it's that low. Underway it's imperceivable. Is this normal? Haven't found a setting to increase the volume.

I noticed this as well and thought it was odd. I assumed it was normal. I don’t think there is a way to make it any louder, unfortunately.

Yeah I agree the volume level of the cluster alerts is too quiet to hear at highway speeds. The speed compensated volume of the radio leaves a lot to be desired as well. Guessing they didn't really test the auto levels on a track, just on the bench. It would be nice if they could add a speed compensated volume for the cluster alerts.

Wonder if this is a problem with 2022 only?

'21 chiming in (pun intended...). It's very soft, however, I noticed if you let it go, you'll get the Mach E Bong Bong Bong.

I kept looking for why it was bonging me, then I realized the blinkers were still on. Clicked them off/bong went off.

So at least you won't be driving 100 miles before you find out you've been trying to make a left turn the whole way...

the "clicks" were much louder when the car was new (June '21). A few software changes, and now the clicks are imperceptible.

I Like it soft!

I wish there was a setting.
Personally, I've always (in previous cars) relied on the relay cue. I was hoping I'd get used to the Mach E cue being a quiet talker, but here I am six months later still having to look down to determine if I remembered to turn them off or not.

To increase the turn click volume, turn blinker left for 2 clicks, then right for 2 clicks. Continue doing this and you’ll notice that the clicks become louder each time you repeat this.

I don’t think it’s in the manual but it’s a Ford thing.

I just wish there was a alert that the blinker is on after 30 seconds or so. Is an alert like this available in the settings menu??

Never knew that. Will give it a try. ?

Interesting piece of information.
How do you make it quiet again?

Not just 2022. Kind of like the quieter signal (until I don’t turn it off) but dont really like that the audio volume doesn’t moderate as much as it should.

It probably goes back to quiet after it gets past the loudest. I never tried that.

The attached says do right, then left. Doubt if it makes a difference.

Good to know I did not find it in the 2022 owners manual.
I'll probably set it once and forget it forever. Then I'll have the fun of discovering it again.

I doubt this.

1) Have owned Ford's for decades. Never read this or heard this before.

2) The above text is from the NIU scooter FAQs....
