Let S(x;q1a1,q2a2)=∑′mn≤xcos(2πmq1a1)sin(2πnq2a2) with x≥q1q2,1≤ai≤qi, and (ai,qi)=1 (i=1,2). We study the sign changes of S(x;q1a1,q2a2), and prove that for a sufficiently large constant C, S(x;q1a1,q2a2) changes sign in the interval [T,T+CT] for any large T. Meanwhile, we show that for a small constant c′, there exist infinitely many subintervals of length c′Tlog−7T in [T,2T] where ±S(t;q1a1,q2a2)>c5(q1q2)43t41 always holds.
