I have just finished installing a remote starter on the above car. Every thing works great, but I lost the parking lights. They do not work when I turn them on from the switch. The head lights work fine. The starter and keyless activate the lights fine. ANY HELP IS REALY APPRECIATED. tHANKS

I checked the fuses, I could not find any blown fuses. Could there be a relay for the parking lights. I just bought the car, and there is no owner's manual. Could any body give an idea where to find such info. about fuses and relays functions and location. Thank you all.

there is a relay for the pk. lts. they are neg. trigger from the switch and the relay is in the fuse box under the dash.  what color pk. lt. wire did you tag?? it should have been green for pos. trigger.  that wire is coming out of the back of the fuse box .  it is the pk. lts. themselves that are not workin right, and not just the dash lights.  if the parking lights light up but the dash lights dont then you tagged the dimmer wire and not the parking light wire. this will fry the dimmer switch.  FYI  always make sure when hooking up parking lights that you get the "parking light" wire and not the dimmer wire. common mistake i see all the time. both wires can be found at the dimmer switch.  it isnt a problem as long as the dimmer is up all the way but if you dim the dash lights at all when you send 12 volts backwords through the switch it will burn it out.
