Passanger Side parking light won't turn on! BLINKER WORKS THOUGH!!>?!?! - SRT Forums

Stealth · 02-27-2008, 11:57 PM

Okay..I tried posting this in the problem section but no one answered..

My Passenger side parking light (Turn Signal) Does NOT turn on when
the parking lights are on. It will however blink if i use the turn signal or
hazards.

Any ideas?

I've tried replacing the bulb and still no fix.

Is there a fuse?

Thanks.

check the wires. if the fuse was an issue then it wouldnt light up at all.

Check your MFS? Also check the connector to make sure the wiring is fine (frayed, burnt, etc) and no corrosion building up inside it. Your parking light gets 3 inputs IIRC. One for ground, one for parking "steady" light and another for the turn signal. The parking and turn signal wires both go to their own filament inside the bulb. If one is working and the other isn't, usualy it's because it's not getting power somehow. Use a multimeter or test light and make sure you're getting power to the parking light connector for the parking steady light. If you aren't getting power, then follow the path until you find your problem. Hopefully it's just corrosion or a cut wire and not your MFS and wiring all together.

Good lord ppl its the filament in the bulb. Dual filament. The parking light part of the filament is broke, buy a new bulb.

Edit just saw that you replaced the bulb. Check the replacement. It might have broken when you put it back into the headlight assembly. Happens alllllllll the time.

I'm pretty sure I tried to voltage awhile ago and I wasn't getting anything.
Thats why I thought it might be a fuse or what not.

Whats the MFS????

multifunction switch. the one controlling headlights, p-lights, fogs, and directionals.

that thing coming off of the left side of the column

Yes. Usually when that happens, nothing works.

Not necessarily caused by fogs. Dodge/Jeep/etc has a long history of MFS failures. Why they continue to build their electrical systems around such BS is beyond me.

^ok well guess i only cut down part of my possibility then lol.
