Sidemarkers - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #49572 8 posts Started by laff09
I've got a few questions.. #1 are the sidemarkers supposed to light up with the turn signal? #2 Which fuse/relay would be responsible for the sidemarkers #3 I can't seem to get them to light up, and I've already changed the bulbs...any ideas? Apparently I can't pass inspection until they light up...and I take off my license plate frame lol. I'm pretty sure they have never worked with the turn signals on my car, and the other 2 times I had it inspected, no one said anything...so I think I just got a crappy tech.. Also in Delaware they test for emissions with a sniffer on the windshield, rather than the tailpipe which was, well different.
the sidemarker light up but they don't blink with the turn signal.

they turn on and that's it, that's the way they come from factory, so you should be able to pass inspection with them the way they came from factory right ?

When is it supposed to light up?
when you turn the lights on smile.gif

you have two clicks on the left arm next to your steering wheel, the first click turns the interior lights and side markers on along with rear lights and such, basically everything but headlamps. at this point your side markers should be on.

this is true even thought i never understood why they were never ment to blink
make sure the sidemarkers are fully pushed in wink.gif one of mine wouldn't light up and i just had to press it into the socket and it worked!
im sure you could wire it to your turns so that they blink when your turns do...never really tried to do it though...might be a cool mod to do if you got some spare time
