Check the fuses first. The park lights are fused seperately. The park lights
are not the same bulb filiments as the turnsignals/brake lights. Also, check
for loose connections at the fuse box, and the headlight switch. From there,
start replacing bulbs, and checking connections at the lights themselves. It
is possible that you just have some burned out bulbs. If you have a volt/ohm
meter, check that there is voltage at all the connections.
Do the park/tail lights work when the head lights are on?
