automatic turn signals

Please tell me I'm not going crazy...

When I first got this truck in December I'm 99% sure the turn signals would blink 3 times when I "clicked" the switch. Since then the battery has died which I replaced and now they no longer do this. Was this something that may have reset when the battery died or am I low on blinker fluid? Thanks!

 

you crazy - they never did

...and make sure you use the right headlamp/blinker fluid

 

Not what I wanted to hear but thanks! Maybe I should stop drinking the blinker fluid.

 

Wonder if your relay/bulb went bad at the time you last used it? 3 blinks kuput!

 

This is a thought. I'll have to look into it. As the previous owner was my 90 year old uncle I can guarantee nothing was done to it besides taking it to Toyota for an oil change.

 

There's your problem...

 

Maybe...I've known the shop manager at this Toyota for most of my life though and he's always been trustworthy. My problem was probably letting autozone put the new battery in.

 

My truck has never done that, ever.


Original battery.

 

I wished they did!! I came from a 2010 F150 and a 2013 Ford Fusion and loved that little feature! For the first few weeks I kept catching myself trying it on the tacoma.

 

Our Sienna does it, and I often find myself flicking the turn signal and then switching lanes when driving my truck.

 

Their's something on the market that goes for about $100, another mod ugh! http://www.autowindow.com/

 

Hmm. That may just be the ticket. I've also been playing with the idea of swapping the window switches from a Camry into it so that they are all auto up and down from the drivers seat.

 

Tapturn is not compatible with the Tacoma. I remember seeing someone post on here that the connector is the wrong size. Even on their site they don't list the Tacoma as compatible.

 

I think they now have it for the Tacomas'. http://www.autowindow.com/

 

Lists everything but Tacoma unless I'm dumb and missing it?

 

I went and put my order in for a 2014 tacoma and it wanted to know what C.C. I wanted to use?

 

The image I posted is the compatibility list and every Toyota but Tacoma is listed. Do you have another source that says it is? And when you order it doesn't list models it just asks you to put in your year and make, that's not saying it's compatible.

 

i read on this forum the blinkers would blink 3 times if you just tap lightly right or left. i tried it and it works on my truck.....

 

Thanks for the positive reply, I thought I was loosing it!

 

Mine do not If I flick it, it goes once. If I push all the way down/up they stay until wheel has been returned to straight orientation. I'm 2012 DCLB Trd sport. Similar to OP
