No Trailer Stop or Turn Lights On a 2011 Toyota Tundra
Question:
There is power at tail light and backup light pins at truck side of 7 pin connector. Electric brakes work. There is no power at left or eight turn signal/ brake light pins. I have checked all fuses and inspected wiring for obvious damage. I dont know where to go from here.

Expert Reply:
Have you checked the relays in addition to the fuses? If not then this would be the next thing I check. You can swap a relay out that you know is working for one that is not to do the above. I will say that the vast majority of cases with this issue will be attributed to a blown fuse so make sure to inspect the element inside the fuse carefully as it is not always obvious it is blown. Once this is done your next best option would be to trace the wires back while checking for breaks. If still no breaks found then replace the trailer connector with part # PK12-707E or part # PK11893.
If all else fails then you will need to take your vehicle into a service center to have it serviced as it is most likely an issue with the BCM.
