Hi i recently installed some jdm yellow fogs in my 08 civic lx coupe. The car has the turn signals and the parking light on the same bulb, but the paking light on the front passenger side wont work, all the others work. The turn signal is the only part of the bulb that comes on. I tried changing the bulb but that wasnt the problem. The fogs are hooked up the proper way with a switch and not connected to the park light. What could be causing this? Any help would be appreciated.

check the ground wire going to the bulb, follow the wire to see where it connects to

maybe during your installation your messed up a connection, a relay maybe?
since the bulbs are great and the turn signal works, id recheck the wiring to the parking connection
Do it yourself

For fun....disconnect your fogs completely, see if your problem continues.

I found the problem. The wire for parking lights on the42 pin plug above the fuse box was not making proper contact.
