So I bought the Carista Bluetooth dongle and now my windows open using my remote BUT I don't see any options for increasing the number of blinks in the turn signal or stopping the steering wheel from retracting when the engine is turned off. Are these options possible on carista?

 

 

Cant remember where I saw the thread about changing the signal but it worked perfectly. Got it to do 5 blinks now, which is much better if you ask me.

 

Try this. It worked on my '15 GS which does not have the setting in the menu screen either.

1. Start with the car completely off
2. Use the rotary **** on the wiper control to set how many blinks you want. This **** has four positions:
- 1st (bottom) position = 3 blinks
- 2nd position = 5 blinks
- 3rd position = 7 blinks
- 4th (top) position = no automatic blinks
3. Hold the wiper lever in the all-the-way-up position, and keep holding it there
4. With foot OFF brake pedal, press the start button twice so the gauges light up (keep holding that wiper lever up!)
5. Continue to hold the wiper lever all the way up for 5 seconds or more (if you go too fast you will have to start all over!)
6. Let the wiper lever come down one position and hold it there for 5+ seconds (don't let it go back to the middle, just let it come down one position)
7. Hold with wiper lever all the way up again for another 5+ seconds
8. Let with wiper lever come down one position again, and hold it for 5+ seconds
9. Let go of the wiper lever. The right turn signal should flash once. If it doesn't, turn the car off and start again at step 1.
10. Briefly move the turn signal lever down 1 position and let go of it again.

The left turn signal should flash to confirm your setting, but not in the way you might expect. It will blink 1, 2, 3, or 4 times to match where you set the rotary **** on the wiper control, so:

If the turn signal blinks 1 time = you changed it for 3 blinks
If the turn signal blinks 2 times = you changed it for 5 blinks
If the turn signal blinks 3 flashes = you changed it for 7 blinks
If the turn signal blinks 4 flashes = you changed it for no auto blinks

i found this by searching, i have not tried this, im going to try it though, i have a 15 GS

 

It took a few tries but it actually worked! Thanks!

Any idea if the steering wheel exit adjustment can be changed too??

 

I changed mine with Techstream. Not sure if Carista can do it.

 

I tried the Techstream the other day to set all my windows to roll down via key fob, it's great. Much easier then trying these little hacks or using the Carista app. Techstream gives you full access, you can get it for $30 on eBay for the latest version. Once you install it, takes a couple of seconds to select "ON" or "OFF" to activate or disable a feature. I'm going to mess around with it some more when I get time.
