Here’s a pic of parking lights not on but all other lights on ! All connectors I seen looked fine and connected so I’m at a loss! I’m not good with electrical stuff so that doesn’t help my cause but everything I could think to check I’ve checked so Idk what’s the remedy ? Besides new parts which I just don’t want to start with that if I can find the solution but I’m calling my mechanic tomorrow and see what he says

Did you ever try putting stock bulbs back in everything? I'm always suspicious of LEDs. I really feel like that might solve at least some of your issues. You mentioned in another thread that one of your headlights looked dimmer than the other, and IIRC you were running LEDs in those too. One of the diodes might have failed, causing them to appear dimmer than usual.

some tips for electrical troubleshooting. you have left and right side lights, you know everything on right side works. you can swap components from one side to the other until the problem moves with the part. if you swap all the parts and the problem doesnt move the the right side, its probably in the turn switch itself

So it’s definitely something with the connections of the bulbs or it’s my taillight not connecting good but randomly yesterday I was tasked with getting a big used chair that she has plans to recover and backing up in person’s driveway all lights came back into regular working order! But then again down the road went back to acting like a bulb was out that’s been going on so I ordered some new taillights and hopefully that’ll solve my issue since it seems like it’s a connection problem fingers crossed!
