    Have my 2005 Tacoma and have been running several trailers. All the lights work exempt for the blinkers. I have checked wires and fuses. Maybe I am over looking something. Any help is appreciated. Trailer blinkers work on my other truck. Just my Tacoma and either I am overlooking something or don't know what. Is there a specific fuse for the trailer lights. I have looked at them under the hood. Have changed them out, but no luck. Thanks

    There's a 30A towing tail fuse, 30A towing brk fuse and a 30A towing fuse. Check the 30A towing fuse. It feeds power to the magic turn signal box that combines brake lights and turn signals.

    My brake lights work, but it is just the turn signals.

    So, did you check the towing fuse?

    Is your trailer light wiring factory of aftermarket? 7-pin or 4 pin?

    I've had the converter boxes from wiring kits melt on me in the past. Hard to tell from the outside of the box, but I've had trailer light issues resolve in the past by replacing the wiring kit
