Front Side Marker and Parking lights 71 firebird
Guys I am wiring my front side marker lights and front parking lights and confused. My EZ wiring harness comes with a wire for the park light and a wire for the turn signal light. My side marker and front parking light have two wires, ground and positive. Do I simply splice the Parking and Turn signal wires together and run them to the positive wire for the the side marker and front parking lights. I think they are both supposed to turn on when your headlights are turned on and blink when you turn your blinkers on?
Thanks for any help here. |
Splicing the Parking and Turn wires together will give goofy results

Your front turn signal/parking light should have 3 wires: turn, park, and a ground (or possibly ground through the housing). Your side marker should have two wires & a plastic bulb socket, and if you want it to function as a marker and turn signal those two wires should be hooked up one to turn, and the other to park. Assuming you use traditional non-LED bulbs, the front turn/park will function with a dim park & bright turn, and the marker will either flash with the turn when the park lights are off, or alternate with the turn when the park lights are on.

However I am not completely sure about the lights in the front. There are two leads and the lights function with the turn signal wire to one lead and a ground to the other. I am not exactly sure how the front lights functioned from the factory. Just turn signal lights or both parking and turn signals. |
