My Front corner lights do not operate as parking lights. Swapped bulbs to no avail.

All the indicators work, (2 front, 2 Fender, two Rear), Head lights , Tailights, Rear Parking lightsand brake lights all work.


Just not the front parking lights. Besides posible corrosion on the contacts, any reason for this?

I also bent the little tabs forward for better contact.

Is the signal getting to the connector? If so, I would suggest new sockets.

[Vagabond]

I have extra sockets i can try.

What should voltage read?

The headlight switch fell apart in my daughter's '95 855. She lost her headlights.

It is not difficult to remove it - what broke was the tabs that held the guts in the box around the switch.

Does your headlight switch feel funny?

I purchased a new switch, but later decided that a simple repair with tape that does not stretch would have done the job.

If the rear parking lights are working, the fronts should be, too.
Check power on pin 3 at the back of the light housing.
The book says it should be a white wire on the
driver's side and a green wire on the passenger.

Ground is the black wire in the middle on pin 2,
but if the turnsignals work up front, then it's OK.

Check the pins inside the sockets for power, too.
Sure you have the right bulbs?

Looks like the license plate lights are tied into the
driver's side parking circuit. Are those working?

[Vagabond]

bulbs are 1157.

I'll check the plate bulbs, and test those wires.

Thanks. Solid info.

Do u have those aftermarket angel eye headlights? If u do, apparently the bulbs r single stage therefore will not stay on, ud have to find dual stage ambers/clears to work.

If u dont have those headlights im out, these people have some great info

[Vagabond]

Still cant figure out why this is.
