Park lights went out

Installing my alarm, come to find out the brain is no good…. Now I having problems with the park light, they are not working, the headlights come on but that’s it. No tail lights, or park lights, and no dash lights. I found one blown fuse and replaced but its still isn’t working. When I put on the turn signal its works or step on the brake the taillights light up. But when I turn on the park lights I get nothing. Any thought on what its could

theres one fuse under the hood that controls the park lights, tail lights, and console lights... looking at the engine from in front of the car, its on the right side. dont remember what its labeled as tho. in any case, its in the engine bay. a simlpe 10 amp fuse.

There is no power in the switch in the steering column. There is supposed to be a constant 12V in the red and green wire but its dead. I run a wire from the Batt to that wire that should have been hot and the lights come on. So somewhere there is a broken link. i check the fuses under the hood. everything check out fine...but there is a broken link somewhere.

Re: Park lights went out

Chech the fuse for "Tail lights" in your fuse box where all your accessory fuses are inside cabin. The fuse is on the first column, 4 or 5th from the bottom. Should be a 7.5amp fuse.
