Technical Guide: How to Achieve Factory-Level Turn Signal Functionality on Joyor S5 (ABE) / S5 Pro (ABE)

Solution Overview

The Joyor S5 series (including the German ABE models of the S5 and S5 Pro) is a high-performance electric scooter. However, the lack of standard turn signals has been a key pain point reported by many users. We noted a clear demand from customers seeking enhanced traffic safety and compliance with stricter road regulations for the addition of this crucial function.

Traditional add-on solutions often involve external light kits, resulting in messy wiring, poor stability, and incompatibility with the original vehicle system. To provide an integrated, safe, and reliable solution, we custom-developed the S5 Series Retrofit Kit. This is a hardware-level upgrade that replaces the controller, display panel, and light control module with components that support the turning logic, thus enabling full turn signal functionality for the S5 series.

Why Replace the Controller and Display?

Some customers may wonder: Why do I need to replace so many components just to add a few lights?

This is necessary because the turn signal system involves signal triggering, transmission, and power supply management:

• Controller: Contains new custom firmware capable of recognizing turning instructions and outputting the corresponding voltage signals.

• Light Control Module: Features integrated cable plugs and is responsible for power distribution, ensuring the main headlight and the four new turn signals operate without interference.

• Display and Switch: Adds the physical control interface, allowing the user to operate the turn signals via a dedicated switch.
