Lights help!

Post by Sparky75 »

Hi all, got a problem.<BR>My front parking lights will not work, i have 2 separate bulbs in the front bumper, one for signal, and the parking lights. Does anyone know where the wiring comes from in the car and what colour wires?<BR>also i see from your pictures that you also have lights in the rear bumper behind the red reflectors, are they a factory fitted item?<BR>I think my car has been altered for UK laws but i still want them hehehe.

I know this might sound stupid or basic but have you checked the fuses?

The same thing happened to me. Except my turn lights worked, but the parking lights didn't work. The previous owner had installed fog lights and nicked a wire. I found it by pulling out the side marker lights and the turn lights and pulled the wire all the way out of the car. There is a connection before the turn light. Well right where the connection was there was a little nick that had gotten wet and it corroded the connection. All I did was cut the connection out and hardwire the wires back together then made sure it was water tight. That seemed to have fixed the problem.
