Kisan SignalMinder Automatic Turn Signal Canceller & Controller SM-3R - Plug-in
BE SURE! Do you forget to turn off the signals once in a while? It may be embarrassing when you realize it, but also quite unsafe in the traffic.
SignalMinder stops the flashing automatically. You simply replace the flasher on your motorcycle.
SM-3R unit is designed as a plug-in replacement for the newer Honda motorcycle models with 9-pin connectors such as the VTX-N and Rune.
SignalMinder uses a computer chip to cancel the turn signals. There are three (3) selectable timeouts; 10, 20, 30 seconds.
Running Light Option
By attaching two quick-connect wires included, you can convert ALL FOUR turn signals to running lights and establish a dual-channel system on your motorcycle.
Using the DIP Switch #1, you can select the running light intensity to be 1/2 or 1/3 brightness.
With the dual-channel system, when you activate the RIGHT turn signal three times in succession, you get 4-way hazard flash function.
Brake Override Option
If you hook-up the 12 volt supply from the brakes, SignalMinder will suspend the time-out feature until the brakes are released. This allows continued flashing for those times when you are waiting at the signals to make a turn and do not want the time-out to cancel the flashing.
Handle Bar Return Springs
If above options are hooked-up, these tiny return springs can be inserted in the handlebar switch to force it back to neutral automatically. You don't have use the Push-to-cancel of the handlebar switch.
Above options are not required to be installed, but utilizing them allows fully automatic turn signal cancellation. We highly recommend to hook them up.
Please Note! NONE of the wires on the motorcycle have to be cut. The kit includes Scothclok brand of Insulation Displacement Connectors (IDC) to tap into existing wires.
The last thing you need is to worry about canceling the turn signals! Use all of the built-in options of the SignalMinder and enjoy the ride.

Where is the turn signal relay (turn signal flasher) on my motorcycle? I can't find it.
Please refer to your Owner's Manual or the Wiring Diagram of your motorcycle. There are too many variations to cover. It could be integrated with kickstand interlock or the dash circuit board. It could be hidden under the gas tank, under the seat, or behind the dash. Follow the wires that feed your turn signal bulbs. When possible, for more popular models, we have identified the location in the installation instructions.
The SignalMinder SM-3R Automatic Turn Signal Canceller and Controller is a different size and shape from the original flasher. How do I mount it?
You can leave the original flasher in its holder. Find a suitable location nearby and use the Velcro pad supplied to attach the unit.
My turn signal switch comes back to center. Do I need to install the return springs?
If you have already hooked up the Running Light option, installing the Return springs is the next logical step. As discussed in the installation instructions, the handlebar switch is electrically latched inside. Just because the outside lever returns to center does not mean it is in neutral. Installing the Return springs gives you the freedom of not having to push the lever in to cancel, which is the same as releasing the latch. Even after the push-to-cancel action is defeated with the Return springs, you can still stop the flashing by going back to the same side once more. The same-side-cancel feature is available if the Running Light connections are made.
I have installed the return springs. But now the turn signals will flash only if I hold the switch down. As soon as I let go of the lever, they stop flashing. What's wrong?
You have not made the Running Light option connections. Without the Running Light option hooked up, as soon as the turn signal switch comes to neutral, there's no continuity. Signal Minder needs alternate paths, so it can supply the current to the turn signal bulbs.
I tried to install the return springs but they don't fit. What do I do?
Cut a little off of the large end of each spring until they fit.
I already have running lights in the front. Do I still have to hook-up the option?
You don't have to, but hooking it up will enable the other built-in features of the SignalMinder. Not only will you gain additional conspicuity in the back with two more lights, you will also have 4-Way flash and Escort mode flash capability.
I have hooked up the Running Light option. And now the dash indicators are on all the time. What's wrong?
The dash indicator bulbs are wired together with the turn signal lamps on your motorcycle, so they will also stay on dimly. While using the turn signals, they will indicate properly by flashing brightly. If you do a lot of nighttime riding and the indicators glare bothers you, you can reduce the intensity with DIP Switch#1.
