    Parking lights are not working but same bulbs work as turn signals and hazard lights.

    I checked the "TAIL" fuse under the instrument panel but it looked OK.

    What else could it be?

    1794 and Platinum don’t use the Amber bulb as Parking lights only LED DRL and ambers in side corners

    The ambers in center only works as hazards and turn signal

    Thanks for the information. But now I'm confused about why there is a "parking lights" setting on my headlight control switch.

    Is there a modification to make the lights work as parking lights?

    Sure there’s a modification to make them work as parking lights same as SR5 and others trims with Amber DRL,


    Your parking lights are only the LED strip dimmed and Amber side corners nothing in the center only for turn signal and hazards.

    The mod consists in creating a Jumper wire between side maker violet wire and the MT spot in turn signal plug

    The jumper is something like this, one for each side
