Just because the 27W blinker filament is still intact and lights doesn't tell you anything about the 5W parking lamp filament.

Check the bulb, which is probably the issue.

Yes, just because 1 filament has failed doesn't mean the other has too. Visually check the bulb.

Thats how it produces 2 different light outputs. Running lights are dim, turn signals and brake lights are brighter. Sounds like you just lost the dim filament.

Besides, bulbs are what, $2? Just replace it and see if its fixed. If not, eh, it was only $2, and you can continue troubleshooting from there.

You don't state what year teg you have. If its a G3, remove the single phillips screw visible on the outside. If its in the rear you don't remove the lens, you access the bulb from inside the trunk.
