Hi,
I have a 93 toyota pickup- v6 3.0 ltr - 5 speed- xtra cab 4x4- 150,000 miles.
My marker lights stopped working soon after i started towing trailers daily. now, trailer or not, the blinkers blow the fuse. if i replace the fuse, it lasts about a week and then blows. but still no marker lights. the hazards work with or without the blinker fuse, so i know the bulbs/ witing at the lights are functional.
Relay? something funky with this year toyota? any ideas?
ALSO - i tow the same trailers with an old ford and don't have any electrical problems, so i think the trailer wires are ok.
Thanks

Check out right where wires were tapped into for the trailer wiring and evverything about it right back there. They no doubt don't hold up as well as OE wiring and are a common touble spot for just this type thing,
