LED DRL's with Hyper Flash Fix

I PM'd you my thoughts, but in a nutshell...

You plug in the LED bulbs. Be sure they are C/K bulbs NOT regulars, or you will blow fuses. If they don't light up flip them over.

Wire in the resistor across the turn signal "+" wire to the white ground wire on each side. The turn signal "+" wire is blue on the passenger and green on the drivers side. (2014 truck, YMMV with other years?)

Here are the load resistors. Get metal ones NOT ceramic. Be sure to secure them so that the resistors are contacting the metal part of the truck (NOT plastic, NOT dangling in midair, etc) for heat dissipation.

Good luck! It's a very easy and nice looking mod.

 

OK: I like the idea of the switchback, and reducing the heat buildup in the turn signal housing even in the '12+ (technically transfering that heat to the outside load resistor).
But, what I don't see is the low intensity amber running-light function.
So the switchback would have to have a dual high intensity function- white/amber switchback for drl/turn signal (headlights OFF), and low intensity amber-headlights on, drl off.

What am I missing or does your setup do this?

 

Their is a recall that ends this year it ends in november (2015) for certain years all depends on what year and the mileage you have on your taco look it up on the internet

Excuse my lack of knowledge. Would this be roughly the same thing ?

 

Yes Justin. They would be similar. Stray from the cheapies though. They start burning out and flickering. My brand is Putco and they were $60, but still working to this day. Plus lifetime warranty where I bought them from.

 

awesome, thanks man.
