I need help installing my magic blinkers that I just ordered. I know its not rocket science and Im normally pretty good at electrical work but Im a little confused on this one.
I will be mounting my Instant Gentlemen Body kit on my zenki soon. If you notice there's no signal lights on the front. So my goal is to get my corner lights to act as my blinkers using the magic blinkers. Magic Blinkers Turn Signal Coverter (http://www.customdynamics.com/magic_blinkers.htm)
http://www.customdynamics.com/pdf/Custom_LED_Magic_Blinker_-_Instructions.pdf
so I've attached a picture on what I did but it doesn't seem to work. The corner light goes on when I turn the lights on but it doesn't blink when I turn on the signal lights.
In the picture I drew I still have the blinker hooked up and im just tapping off of the two wires. Any tips will be appreciated. Also where's a good 12v ignition switch i could tap from under the hood?

Incorrect. The red wire goes to your parking light wire from the combo switch. The white wire goes to the signal wire from the flasher relay.
Yellow and black goes to your corner light bulb. Position doesn't matter. One way or reverese doesn't matter.

ill try it... I was hoping you chime in on this i was about to pm you because you're basically the reason I got this
the flasher relay is located under the steering column??? wouldn't happen to have a diagram would you :p
ok so im looking at the fsm trying to locate the parking light wire from the combo switch i think i found the relay just gotta figure out which one is the signal wire

Pull the wires to the old bumper lights. That harness has everything you need: ground, parking, signal.
Clip the connector and expose the 3 wires.
Hook these 3 wires to the 3 wires on the magic blinker like I said above.
Clip the connector to the corner lamp and expose the 2 wires. Tape up the wires on the body harness.
Hook the 2 wires going to the corner lamp to the magic blinker. Direction doesn't matter like I said above.
What year is the car? I'll do a complete tutorial for you.

The 3 wire side doesn't go to your turn signal. It goes to the source of the turn signal.
I'll get the drawings up for you.

i figured it out just need a 12v. I guess i have to run the corner lights as DRLs so says the magic blinker tech.
Anyone knows a good 12v source under the hood and not the Head light 12v because I need the blinkers to work when the Headlight are off and on.

umm, anything in the egr and emissions stuff (if removed should do just fine for what you want). if not and your just testing, run it straight to the battery. Just grab a test light or multi-meter and start checking wires to ground, if you get 12v with the key on then go with it. Stay away from important things(injectors, anying ignition, ect.)
im curious as to why you went with the magic blinker though? you couldve found a dual filliment bulb and plug that fits your housing and hook your marker to one lead and your blinker to another. Wouldve made this easier for you.
