    Hey guys. I've been switching all my outdoor lights to led in my 2013 Tundra.

    The issue I have been having is with the signal lights. They will not work as dual function. On front and rear they are supposed to be running lights along side flashers.

    The flasher portion works perfectly and if I pull the lights out and reverse install them. The running lights work. But I can't get them both to work and function properly. Any thoughts folks? With the older style they work fine.

    To clarify. Blinking lights have multi function as parking lights. (Yellow) New led replacements will not do parking lights

    I’d lean toward the LEDs not being suited for dual function.... I’ve swapped a bunch of bulbs for LEDs, and never had issue, aside from hyper flash, when no resistor was involved....

    Thanks, that seems to be exactly it. When any of your local auto part stores around you don't even know that. It's frustrating. I ordered specific dual lights for this function. I ended up needing 4157 CK bulbs. I found this answer from headlight revolution. Feels bad for the auto part stores tomorrow when I return the two sets in torn packs. Lol whatever, they should of known that or their computers show that.
