    Hey Everyone. Hoping you can help me. I installed 2nd Gen Morimoto headlights on my truck and the front right and back right blinkers aren't working (front R headlight blinker and back R tail light blinker). When I use the turn signal inside of the vehicle via the stalk it blinks barely once then doesn't show blinking or make sound at all (inside of the vehicle.)

    The left turn signal works just fine no issues. I checked all my fuses and none are shot. I'm guessing it's the relay due to both the front right and back right tail light blinker being out at the same time. I don't think it's the headlights that are the issue, but rather the truck. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    Apply fused juice to the turn wire on the front headlight assembly to verify the "light". (connector removed from vehicle side)
    Do same to rear.

    Jumper wire that has a fuse to wire that pertains to the turn circuit. Baby Blue color for RIGHT side.
    Or a thin gauge wire will also work. 20 awg would do nicely.

    Ok makes sense. I'm having a new pair installed later this week. I'm sending them back because there was another issue aside from the turn signal (not left high beam). Going to round up all suggestions I see on here and go through the list if the promblem persists.

    This is the vehicle side connector.
    (looking into the connector)

    You still have the original headlight assemblies?

    Side note I have the SR. The base model. Had to hook my DRLs via add a fuse. I still have the OEM halos. I really hope this works out because I really really hate those headlights lol

    SR uses same circuit for DRL and TURN.

    Well I'm lost I guess. I thought the reason I had to hook up the add a fuse was for the DRLs

    It is. You must disable the DRL feature through a setting in the Head Unit.

    Excellent, so if you connect the TURN connector to the original headlight assembly you could test the TURNS.

    Awesome okay. So just grad the right OEM unit and plug the turn connector in and see if it works. Thanks man. It's strange how the left signal is having no issue. I figured it wasn't the headlights because the tail light blink is out too.

    It's just a test. The TACO might have a burnt Combination Meter, section that controls turns/hazards.

    Damn then I'd really be screwed right? I was hoping it's just the relay pending the test I'll do tomorrow.
