[urq] parking lights not working

[Louis-Alain Richard]

I second the fusebox. Mine failed internally and headlights were good, but
not the parking lights. It can also be one of the big plugs at the back of
the fusebox, (black, yellow, blue, white and clear) that has some burnt
pins...

Good luck,

Louis-Alain

Jim,

 

Check the fuse box, take the fuse out and see if you have power going thru
the females.  by putting a volt meter where the fuse goes.

 

I had a similar situation...where check everything but at the end a wire
come off disconnected from the bottom of the fuse box.  And if I recall it
is not nesesary that the wire is directly above the fuse.. so be very
careful if you find a wire that has power flotting araound.   Don't just
plug it in bellow the fuse box.

 

In my 85, the wire was 1.5 inches away from the fuse that control my ???? I
can't remember if it was my Window regulators or my inside lights and power
for other like cluster.....
 

 

Hope it helps
