Problem With Tundra Marker Lights Not Turning Off

Problem With Tundra Marker Lights Not Turning Off

The 2004 Toyota Tundra has had a number of recalls. One such recall is for the Tundra marker lights. A marker light is a blinking light that is produced to indicate the direction the driver is taking; its also known as a turn signal or indicator light. If your Tundras marker lights are constantly blinking, you may have a faulty blinker fuse or light bulb.

Instructions

    1

    Insert the key into the ignition and turn it clockwise to the "On" position, but do not start the engine.

    2

    Test the blinker system by inspecting the fuse panel. Look under the cars dashboard, which is located just below the drivers knee. Youll see the fuse box. Locate the tap on the fuse box cover and lift it up to snap the cover off. Remove the cover. On the underside of the cover is a chart that explains each fuse control.

    3

    Inspect the blinker flasher. Connect a jumper wire to two slots at the top of the fuse panel. Switch the blinker lever to the "Off" position. If the blinkers are still going, you may have a faulty fuse that will need to be replaced.

    Turn off the Tundra and remove the key. Remove the marker light covers and replace the bulbs. Unscrew the cover and twist off the bulb. Insert another bulb into the housing and screw it in tightly. Insert the key into the ignition. If the lights continue to blink, youll have to turn to a mechanic to repair the fuse box.
