After breaking out my taillights several times over the last few wheeling trips, I decided to flush in some oval tail lights into my tail gate. I tore into the harness not thinking it would be much of a hassle. I am used to jeeps which have 3 wires (tail, break/turn, and a ground) The toyota has 7 wires.
Using a test light I thought i figured it all out. I found the tail light and turn wires easily, i figured the turn signal would also function as the brake light aswell. No such luck, I can not get any power back to the wiring when the brakes are applied.
Here are the wires I have figured out (I think)
Ground- White w/ Black Stripe & groups of 2 red bands
Tail- Green w/ groups of 2 red bands
Turn/Hazard- Green w/ Black stripe & single red bands
here are the unknown wires
1. White w/ Black stripe & single red bands
2. Green w/ White stripe & groups of 2 red bands
3. Green w/ groups of 2 red bands
4. Red w/ Black stripe
Has anyone else run into this when using these types of lights with flatbeds etc? Any input would be great.
