Default Amber Turn Lights

How do you guys...get the whole amber to light up? Mine only lights up the first half of it...I even tried replacing the bulb and nothing.

Sorry for the dumb question

I believe the only way would to be completely rewire it.

Are you talking about when the turn signal light is flashing? They're suppossed to flash back and fourth.

Well no what I mean is...the second half of the amber is completely useless. It doesn't turn on when I turn on my city lights, and it doesn't blink when I use my turn signal.

The first half, on the other hand, works completely fine. It lights up when I turn on city lights, and blinks when I use signals.

I'm asking...how do I get my second half of the amber to do what the first half does. Pretty much having the whole amber work as one.

Like when I look at other people's integra pics, most people have their whole amber light up, while some have only half like mine.

Do you even have a bulb in there? Double check - I had the same problem with my corner lights in my DA that have 2 bulbs .. It actually didn't have either working haha but I never checked till I got 1 pieces..

see if it's even in there, I thought the front signals had 2 bulbs in them, in DC's anyways..

yeah I checked...there are two bulbs originally in there. Then I even bought replacement bulbs and put them in. After I put in the replacement bulbs, I turned on the city lights and nothing still shows up.

...anyone? =[

if you have a 98+ the one's in the front are the turn signals, the one's to the sides are parking lights. check the connections as well if you have the right bulbs. if you want them to be like your turn signals you'll need to rewire them like you would do sidmarkers. hope that helps

okay that helps somewhat.
Now that rises another question for me. What's the original lighting for the parking lights? Is it even suppose to light up AT ALL? Because mine don't light up AT ALL.

It's not like they already light up but don't blink. They just don't light at all.
Can anyone answer this one for me?

Also check to see if the plugs are filled with gunk. Sometimes that will affect the bulb from getting any electricity

sounds good to me, it was pretty dirty when I checked it yesterday to change the bulb.
I'll get back to everyone.
