A friend recently commented that my blinker sound was pretty loud, and now I can't un-hear it. Any ideas how I might make it quieter?

I can't hear mine very well at all. I look at the dash to ensure it's on.

Might be able to adjust it with the chimes adjustments in ForScan. But I'm not sure

Hearing your blinker may have some benefits. You won't be one of those people driving down the road for numerous miles with your turn signal on :like:
I've actually caught myself with the blinker on.... because I have my stereo on. :)

I don't think the blinker is THAT loud compared to other cars, however it does have a very distinctive tone compared to anything else I've ever driven. But that has been a unique Ford sound for about a decade now. Very strange to anybody who hasn't heard it before. They now just sound like regular *blinkers* to me.

As people gets older, the less they use the turn signal...now I understand why...

Darn GPS should turn it on when it tells you turn in 200 feet ;) and off if you don't listen.

Our blinkers make a sound? Maybe that was added after 2019. ?

i drive a work van where the blinker is not as loud as the blinker in my ‘22 Ranger Lariat and I’m constantly discovering that I left my turn signal blinking after a lane change. I’m grateful that the blinker in my Ranger is louder!
