Directional/Blinker chime or noise
Hello men!
I have been so caught up on expressing my distaste/disdain of the Jaguar XE that I forgot I have a pressing issue to take care of in my now even more beloved X type!!!
Does anybody know if there is a speaker in the steering wheel column? I get no sound from my flashers and find myself running all over town with the blinker on, and it sounds like the XK8's have a little speaker in the steering wheel for the "blinker noise" can anyone tell me before I take the steering column apart?
Thanks!!

Spike, the audible clicker is mounted inside the turn signal stalk. So, you will need to pull apart the steering column and find the box for the turn signal stalk. With this being said, you can probably find a new pizo electric piece to put in there to change the sound of the clicker should you so desire. It should be a simple 12 VDC signal for the clicker. Worst case, put a multimeter across the "speaker" and see what it reads. I am sure you could find some interesting sounds to put in its place.
