    So I replaced my rear turn signals with led bulbs and resistors. Tested them and they work fine. I put led switchback bulbs for the front parking lights/turn signals with resistor to the turn signal circuit. I turn on the turn signals and they work fine. No hyperflashing. But once I turn on the parking lights and use the turn signals they hyperflash. Anyone have this issue on the 2015 prius c? Anyone know a fix for this?

    Why did you do this? The lights are already LED. And by parking lights are you referring to daytime running lights? I doubt you mean fog lights. It seems a little like you crossed circuits.

    My lights are regular bulbs. On my 2015 the front turn signal is right above the fog lamps and it is a dual filimant bulb which I was assuming was the parking lights as well. I guess they are daytime running lights. I checked the circuit with a test light so I'm pretty sure I have the right wiring.

    My guess is you probably want to revert it so that you do not overload your electrical system. You may have wanted to reduce its load for enhanced hybrid operation but I don't think lights draw much, and there are two seperate batteries. There still is a standard 12 volt battery in the car. Maybe you could find an electrical specialist but I think your issue is unusual. Electrical in general runs the whole car and you have a warranty in place. If you can reverse your steps you will hopefully be okay.
