Default parking lights dont work

I dont know when it happened or how but my parking lights dont ever come on. I know its not the bulb because they flash when i use my blinkers. The only wiring i've ever done on the car has been the zc swap, autometer tach, and the radio, but I don't know when or if it started happening after these were done. Any help would be great.


Another thing. I painted my stock corners all amber with transparent orange paint and they looked awsome. Now, the front part of the stock corner looks yellow and the back part still looks good. Anyone else ever experience fading like this and know how to prevent it so the corner remains all amber?

Thanks,
Joe

woops, didn't make myself clear enough. The parking lights and the turn signals work on the corners. The bumper parking lights dont come on, but work when using the turn signals.

They are not parking lights. They are strctly turn signals. That is why they are not on.

in canada our corners don't flash with the signals, but in the states they do. the wiring is all different. if it's a 90+ i think it's because of our "daytime running lights".
