    Okay I working on getting most of my bulbs converted to LED on my 2018 SR5. I converted my front blinkers/DRL to these JDM ASTAR LED lights:
    $20 JDM ASTAR Extremely Bright PX Chips 7440 7441 7443 7444 Amber Yellow Turn Signal LED Bulbs
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PHVUWR8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    The issue is when I have my headlights on I get hyper flash. If my lights are off and DRL are on they work great even with the blinkers. I know I need to purchase some of these to fix the issue:
    $9 Aaron 4Pcs 50W 6ohm Load Resistors - Fix LED Bulb Fast Hyper Flash Turn Signal Blink Error Code (Resistors get very hot during working)
    https://www.amazon.com/4Pcs-Aaron-6...38894966&sr=8-3&keywords=hyper+flash+resistor

    But I know each light has three wires and I am not sure which ones to hook them up to. Do any of you know which line is for the DRL and which one is for the blinkers. I just want to make sure I hook them up correctly. Thanks for any help on this matter!

    So I'm having the same issue, recently got a 2016 SR5, but my hyperflash doesn't go away. On the drivers side I get the resistor goes to the beige color wire, what about on the passenger side. Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but white is the turn signal on both sides or ?? stumped.


    Nvm: got it now. After my 2 halogen bulbs blew

    Here's what I got, from testing with my test light the other day.

    Driver's side:
    Light brown - On when switched DRLs on - DRL High
    Red - On when switched to Fogs or Headlights - DRL Lo
    White/Black - Ground

    Passenger's side:
    Light blue - On when switched DRLs on - DRL High
    Blue - On when switched to Fogs or Headlights - DRL Lo
    White/Black - Ground
