Having hard time wiring flatbed LED lights
I bought 4 in 1 led lights from truck n town.With the factory truck lights the tail and brake lights are one bulb. On the lights I purchased the tail lights are one wire and the brake and turn lights are one wire. So when I hook the brake lights up on both sides and turn the turn lights on either side both sides flash. I tried every way to wire them up.I need help please. It is a 1986 toyota pickup 4wd.

I bought these led rear lights for my flatbed
I am not sure if your working with the rear or front. I just used a probe with a light on it to see which one was running light, brake light, reverse light and signal light and than every two cables that matched colors i spliced them into the LED light mentioned above. It all works perfectly no converter necessary. Unless that will slowly drain my battery or something? Honestly, I work with my hands for a living so I understand cars but I have very little experience working on them.

Eurojoe you got the correct lights for a Toyota !!
Yours have the separate turn signal light where the OP does not
His have the Tail light brake light and turn signal all in the same light.
That is why he needs the converter box .
Getting after market lights I always go with a separate turn signal light

FlatBed taillights
I bought my lights from truck n tow they're really nice four in one lights. I'm still working on my bed,trying to get it painted. So I'm not ready for my lights yet. I temporarily wired them up everything worked but my flashers. What do I need to do to fix this.

Sorry I did not look at this thread for some time
Have you checked your flasher fuse ??
They did work before all this light wiring started ??
If you wired things up without disconnecting the battery possible you caused the fuse to open.
If the turn signals work the flashers should also work.
They share the same flasher

I hope it is friendly .
Flashers not working start at the Fuse !!
Then The switch
unplug the rear harness
Trouble shoot Front make sure that works.
Trouble shoot
The front flashers work even with harness hooked up I found out why the buzzer was going off left front turn signal lights had water in the plug in but this back flashers still don't work

I think the buzzer behind the fuse panel is the buzzer that alarms when you leave the keys in the ignition. I've removed one once before. Not sure how your turn signal got connected to that.
