There are a few memory joggers around & Google is your friend here, but I worry about drivers who repeatedly forget their driving routines..

car builder solutions sell a ready made kit here - https://www.carbuildersolutions.com/de/black-indicator-buzzer-with-diodesor you can buy a buzzer from e.g. Maplins or eBay and a couple of diodes and make your own up fairly easily. I have similar in my Aero and it works well.... James

I had the same problem, except mine NEVER turned off. Bought a couple of buzzers and fitted them myself, problem solved for a few quid.

I could do with an alarm to remind me to turn the lights off when I park!

I'm with you Sarnia
I have a shallow left turn which is the third turn out of my village where the indicator doesn't always return off
Gets me nearly every time especially in the bright weather with my music on as I'm treating my village to some top jazz ( I must be annoying as hell,....if hell fire damnation can be described as 'annoying' )
So I find myself indicating left for the next half a mile or so until my next turn
A buzzer, louder click or a warning light higher up would be a good prompt

A buzzer, louder click or a warning light higher up would be a good prompt I fixed the indicator warning light with my custom dash. The two upper warning lights are the left and right indicators. The lower pair are parking lights and high beam. The small one in the middle is the immobiliser light.
