I installed an autopage r/s alarm in my 2000 Taurus in Sept and everything has been cool since then. All of a sudden my park lights do not flash when I arm or disarm the car and do not turn on when the car in started. I checked the connection at the light switch and it's fine. Is there a fuse on that wire to the r/s? I can't remember and I have to rip off the underdash in -35C weather so if someone could just tell me I would appreciate it.

Thanks guys!

Steve

I know you said you checked your connection, but what method did you use?

If you take a look at that fuse, I am pretty sure the parking light output is a white wires with a 10 amp fuse. I just thought that might help find it quicker.
