Here’s the problem, I cant find the freaking wires that go to the parking lights. I though they were at the head light switch but the colors I was told aren’t there. So now im not sure if I have the colors wrong or if they are in another location. According to the12volt.com, Grey/Red Right PL and Grey / Black Left PL at the switch. Could this be another switch?? I was thinking maybe the hazard light switch but they aren’t there either.

GRAY/BLACK (+) and GRAY/RED (+) Use both
If your having a hard time finding these wires, open up the stearing wheel shroud (not the steering wheel, the cover behind it). Or look at the bundle of wire that goes there.
Meter the wire to make sure.
You said you went to the hazard light and you couldnt find a wire? Seems like your not even testing the wire (regardless of color) you should be testing it instead of just wasting your time looking for a colored wire that might be wrong
I rarely go to hazard light, but that works as parking light too. And i didnt expect it to be the same color as parking light, you shouldnt either
But aside from looking for the wire, do you know how to hook up your parking light wire?

all i know is that there is a wire for right parking light and left parking light, i found 3 wires in the head light switch that turns on with the the switch, so i connected 1 of the parking wires up and the headlight, parking light, cooling fan, all turn on

turn it to only the parking light, it seems like your turning it pass parking light when you are testing the wire. dont know what you mean by cooling fan (A/C)?
But if this fails, try the hazard lights again

Are you just hooking up to wires because some tech-sheet told you it would be the rignt one.....or are you actually testing them like you're supposed to?
