Turn signal power down

Old school guy here, don't know nothin' 'bout throwing codes or shit, just need to get the power back up to the turn signals on my 2nd gen. after I think I blew a fuse of something.

Here's the story: I got an aftermarket Muth Signal Mirror setup, got the right side done and almost got the left side, but the mirror wasn't working when I tested it. I thought I'd made a bad splice, and was in the middle of checking it out with a jumper wire, and the whole system went down. I never did confirm that the mirror itself was good or bad, and I know that I had power to the front facing mirror signal, then nothing on any signal. I must have crossed terminals and shorted it out. I don't have a multimeter or even a continuity checker, just me and my jumper wire.

Yes, I'm under warranty, but my door panel is off and my splices are visible, I don't really want to get the dealership into my business on this if I don't have to. I'll probably have to take it to a shop somewhere, but any help from you guys would be much appreciated. i'll be out for a few hours today and check back here later. Thanks!

 

Anybody?

 

Uhmmm, check fuses and see if hazards work???

just my first thought

 

Did you check the fuse boxes in the engine bay and in the cabin?

 

Hazards are the same circuit as the turns, so they are down also. Cabin fuse box tells me nothing, don't recognize anything in there as even being a fuse as I know it. Remember, I'm an old guy and those things don't appear like they'd have a visible burn, and would likely require a special tool for removal anyway. I'm lost on that. I'll open the box under the hood tomorrow, hopefully that will be more recognizable and have some identification clues for me. Thanks!

 

Oooooh you broke it.

 

That's wat my wife said. She says I'm like a kid and have to take things apart. She doesn't know the half of it.

 

Update:

I figured it was a fuse, burt didn't know where or what value. Bought a Haynes Manual to get the diagram, found the bad fuse, back to Autozone for a 15A fuse.

Then I find the diagram, extra fuses, and a removal tool inside the fuse box. Oh well, I wanted the Haynes manual anyway.

 

Which manual?

 

Haynes Repair Manual. 2005 - 2011 Tacoma

See my other thread about the Muth Mirror Signal install.

You get my PM about the Meet & Greet?

 

No.

How much was the manual? Should be nearly identical info for our trucks. The important stuff, anyway.

 

forwarded the pm again. price was about $26, I forgot and didn't keep the receipt.
