Watt and Ohm Rating Needed for Converting Turn Signals of 2012 Toyota Tundra to LED

Published 09/13/2018

Question:

Hello. I purchased some Philips ultinon less for my turn signals. But I am having some trouble with the hyper flashing. I bought the Philips led adapter canbus to solve the hyper flashing issue but they still hyper flash. The front led dont flash they just stay on for the parking/daytime running lights but the back ledhyper flash. Im not sure if Im using the right resistor its a 5w I believe 6ohm but not 100 possitive. Thanks you for any help These are going on a 2012 toyota tundra double cab 4.6 v8

Sounds like you have resistors that aren't rated properly. You need 50W 8 ohm resistors from what I was able to find for your turn signal bulb style of 3157. We don't carry them but there are adapters that have the exact same socket connectors as your turn signals that you can install inline with your lights. I actually ordered a set for my car today as I was having a similar problem converting the headlights to LED.
