ok So I cleaned the sockets to get good contact, I changed both fuses (#1 & #2). Still nothing. What I can't understand is the #1 fuse is for both front and back parking lights and the luggage compartment. The front work and the back don't ,including the luggage compartment. So it can't be a fuse issue. The number two fuse covers the right side lamps. again front work but the rear do not. The right parking lamp has a piggy back on it that goes to the licensce plate light which isn't working either. So my thoughts are that the issue is between the rear fenders to the fuse box. Where do these wires run? I know both wires from the light go along the side of the car but where do they run from there? It might be a grounding issue from where they come together and go to the fuse box??? BTW.My brake lights and turn signals work fine.Thanks for any input >One tail-light is on the same circuit as the number plate light.
