So i did this to my 1998 4runner: https://www.ultimateyota.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=9924.msg99519#msg99519

so i have one light i want to use as marker and turn signal. i came up with this:

can you look over this and see if it will work? seems like it to me, but i want to be sure before i drop money on relays.

thanks,
Sean

That will work fine as long as you are OK with the newly added LED being off when the blinker is on, and lit when the blinker is off. They will both be flashing, just may look quirky.

I guess I should have read your post a little more closely. If you are having this LED as your only turn signal, you will not have to worry about the quirkyness. If you are wanting this LED to go along with your existing turn signal, the timing may be an issue for you.

this will be my only turn signal. if i do add another (say to the side of the vehicle, midship) i will add it in the same way, parallel to my existing LED light, so i have the same functionality.

thank you for your response!
