Most likely in the fuse panel on drivers side panel ahead of the front door...down by the dead pedal. If not there, in the fuse box on drivers side fender well.

So how 'bout a box of Macanudo Portofino's if I actually open the Electrical Wiring Manual and let you know it's on a panel up under the dash near your right knee when you drive the truck. It is not a standard 2 or 3 prong flasher for LED's...it's proprietary to Toyota.

Looks like it mates with a connector that has 8 wires, those noted as "2 wires" have the 2 wires in separate cavities.

Wire colors are...

Blue / white (body color / stripe)
Green / white
Green / yellow (2 wires)
White
White / black
Green / black (2 wires)

Sometimes LED's need a resistor to fool the truck into thinking it still has incandescent bulbs. Those should be available with instructions from places that sell LED's.

PM me once you find it and I'll give you shipping info for the stogies. If you can't find Macanudo's, Dom Diego's will work.

Hyper-flashing on a stock truck indicates a bulb is burned out...flasher sees lower resistance. Resistors typically are in series with the hot lead to each bulb...the hot lead will be the one that is not white with a black stripe...that's always chassis ground.

You're welcome...good luck.
