Abstract

A remote motor vehicle signal indicator system consists of a transmitter (210) coupled to a vehicle indication signal drive line(270, 280). The transmitter (210) wirelessly transmits a receiver activation signal (110) corresponding to a vehicle indication signal of the vehicle indication signal drive line (270, 280). The vehicle indication signal is selected from the group consisting of a turn signal, a brake signal, a reverse gear signal, and a hazard signal. The system also includes a remote vehicle signal indicator (100) coupled to a surface outside of the vehicle (200) and includes a signal indicator display (140). The remote vehicle signal indicator (100) receives the receiver activation signal from the transmitter (210) and, in response, activates the signal indicator display (140). In some variations, a power supply not coupled to the vehicle power supply powers the remote vehicle signal indicator (100) and the transmitter (210) is powered by the vehicle indication signal.
