    HI all,
    I am new to site. I just purchased a 2018 TRD from a dealer. Which they were no help. Anyways the previous owner installed Xenon HID headlights. The Turn Signals are now flashing way to fast. I have checked the fuse, replaced the rear bulbs/ lamps. Is there a different Flasher/Relay I need to install? If so any idea what I need to fix the issue? Any help greatly appreciated. I tried to search on the forum and could not fine. Could be user error.
    Thank you,

    Some turn turn signal LED bulbs needs external resister. That would be a pain in the A to install. There are optional available with built in resister.

    Not sure why you mentioned about the HIDs. You have any problems with it? I'm pretty sure they have no impact on your hyperflashing turn indicators.

    Thank you. I am just not that knowledgeable unfortunately. I have no idea what is causing the hyper flashing. I just know the previous owner had upgraded the headlights to the Xenons HID and I didnt know if that would cause problems with hyper flashing

    Yeah. Probably led turn signal lights causing your problem. Replace with halogens and see if the hyper flashing goes away?
