If you hit the info button on the steering wheel you can get to the settings menu. From there you can make the signal quieter.

 

Oh, derp. Thanks!

 

I remember reading somewhere in the manual for my car (2011 Mazda 3 s GT) that the audio level of the turn signal indicator could be made quieter or silent, that it defaults to loud, and that it can be adjusted by a dealer. Well, I've found the turn signal noise to be incredibly loud and annoying. I signal religiously, and I'm having a really hard time getting used to hearing that sound. Are there any ways I could adjust it from home, or just disable the noise completely? I really don't need the sound. My old car didn't have it, and I had no problems remembering to turn off the signal.



Also, I remember it saying that the system could be modified to allow a "quick signal" for lane changing? I feel as though I already have to move the stalk two positions in order to use the blinker. I'd be very interested in enabling this and using this feature. How do I do this?

The tap to pass feature (partial movement of the the turn signal stalk), is a programmed feature. Dealer hooks up a laptop and reprogram for this feature. Usually charge a fee to do this. I saw this feature when I first got my 2013. Went back to dealer and complained that I wasn’t made aware of any changeable features, and they did it for free.

That's funny...I didn't think it was that loud to begin with, but yes it can be adjusted in the settings menu.
