Hi,

I am planning to do a headlight project with dynamic turn signals for my 04' LS430.
I did read about relays and capacitors being used in some cars. Saw the diagrams too. But the problem with this car is. It doesn't use a relay to do that. The ECU controls the output. And you have no access to any relays.

I am doing animations with the turn signals by programming it with Arduino. So I need steady output to carry out the process without breaking.

Can I use an external battery to do this ? Or are there any other tricks for this to be madr possible?

Thanks a Lot :D

I'm not 100% but I believe that you can find a constant trigger at the steering column.
