Where to supply +12V so the turn signals flash?

Hello,

I recently installed a keyless entry system in my 2nd Gen. Pretty straightforward, I only need to adapt my key to the new remote, but turned out pretty nice and cheap:





I only had problems with the 12V exit the module has to flash the turn signals. Where do I have to plug it? I tested with a volt meter and one of the three pins of the flasher that sits below the steering wheel have 12V when the warning lights are on. I tried to supply 12V in that pin but I only got a relay noise in the engine compartment and the lights of the dash becoming crazy...

I think the easiest way to plug it is directly in the lights, because the module does a 1seg on 1 seg off 1 seg on off pattern with the lights, but I don't know where is the wire that goes to all the lights... Can you help me?

It's a 3.0TD 4Runner but the lights wiring is almost the same as a V6.

Thanks,

David

You might have a problem wiring it into the turn signals, the left and right circuit have to be totally separate. If you connect the alarm to them that will connect the 2 circuits together and both turn signals will flash whenever you use either signal. Better to connect to the side/marker/parking lights, whatever they're called in Spain. That would flash the taillights as well. The wire for those is green, at least it is on the diagram for a 95 4Runner. You should be able to get to it at either of the front lights, and that should flash both front and rear. If you want I can email you a copy of my wiring diagram, just send me an address.

Yes, I imagined the problem of the turn signals.

Very good idea the parking lights! I'll connect the 12V output in the left light.

I'm still pending of drilling a new hole for the parking lights in front, I put my turn signals inside when installed my bumper hehehe

Thanks for the idea!
