Problems with Altezza lights for 96 Maxima

Has anyone had this problem with Altezza lights? I installed my lights for 96 Maxima and now my parking lights and back running lights (the lights that are suppossed to come on when you turn on the lights) My turn signals work, as well as my brake lights and the backup lights.

I have replaced all the bulbs and the fuses dealing with the lights. I took it to a dealership and they said that it is the lights. I can't return thelights which I purchased from custommaxima.com because they have a return policy that states they have to be 14 days and the lights can't be used. I need some help. What can be the possible problem. I think there has to be a problem with a ground wire or something. Help! I do not want to put the factory lights back on

And yes I did do a search for this topic, but it was not helpful

Oops. I meant to say that my parking lights and running lights do not come on. At night I am in danger of being rear ended by rubbernecking drivers trying to look @ my lights.

I had the same problem too... Its the conections on the wires theyre really cheap youre going to have to find new ones or find a way to keep the wires from moving by the bulb terminals.

Thanx. I wish I had known about this beforehand. I would not have purchased them. Did you eventually solve the problem?

You may have a short in your lights, or try looking at fuses again. Thats what happends when your fuses go out the back lights go out.

Also make sure the bulbs are in ther right socket. Like the bulb w the two terminals should be in the socket w two also.
