Since I bought my car, the parking lights / front turn signals did not work.
Today I got some time underneath the front of the car and found two issues with them that I son fixed.
The drivers side light - The contacts that meet the bulb did not reach. The fix for this was to simply push on the wires from the back side to give the contacts a little more reach inside the socket.
Passenger side light - The socket was broke and the plastic piece inside the socket that insulates the two wires and keeps them apart was destroyed. I went to Autozone and looked in the electrical section and found a replacement socket with the two contacts inside (1157 socket I believe). I found a socket that allowed the contacts and plastic insulator to slide out and used these to rebuild the socket on my car. You need to rebuild these since the socket on the car is pressed into the reflector and I've never been able to figure out how to seperate them therefore it was just easier to replace just the inner parts and leave the socket intact.
They both work great. Now if I can just figure out that darn interior light.. ;D
