Prado Rear Indicator Fuse???

G,day all
Can someone please tell me if there is a fuse for the rear indicators that go to the trailer plug?
I have rear indicators but not at the trailer plug
I have found the relays in where the jack is and they are ticking.But there is no power going to the relays?Is there a fuse somewhere,or has anyone else come across this problem? Check all wiring and there is no brake between the relays and the trailer plug?
Any help would be great
Cheers Jon
Ps:Sorry the car is a 2004 Toyota T/D Prado

I don't know if you have exactly the same problem I had, but sounds extremely similar. I had no indicators on the trailer also but working car indicators. From what I could tell, there was no power (from memory) going to the "relay".

I did post here on the problem, maybe search under my name. Was about a year ago.

Took them out and showed them around and was told they were relays indeed. However, after pulling my hair out, talking to the previous owner, original dealer, shoing toyota, noone could tell me why they were there or if any mods were made. Next stop was an auto leccy, and guess what, they were flashers, not relays. Kind of fell into place from there. No reason flashers should need to be installed twice (one up under the dash, and another near the rear lights). And also, no power from the wire going into them.

So I took them out, hardwired the indicator wires in the loom and was sweet. No probs since.

There is a fuse required in the fuse box in the engine bay
Think it's a 15 amp marked access or similar from memory. any Toyota service bloke should know especially if he fits the tow plug because to activate the wiring harness he has to put in the fuse
