rx-7 fb parking lights, tail lights



OK, they're working now. I don't know why? They came on while I was probing the 6 connections that plug into the combi switch. FYI 2 red tail lights and side red marker lights on each side, yellow front side lights, and yellow lights in the bumper are whats supposed to be on

nah, it's a thread about mundane tail lights and parking lights. I searched parking lights and running lights and tail lights under Gen 1 and got nothing.

those running lights might save me from a bad accident at night.

ever had a bad car wreck? totalled car, collapsed lung, hemothorax, huge hospital bills, everyone wants to blame the porsche driver because porsche means mega $$$. riding the bus 3 hours each way to work, walking 2 miles one way (sometimes in the rain) because the busses don't run at night. and a mile the other because it is morning. I got some funny bus riding tales if you want to hear them

be sure to wear your seat belt. unless you had a bad car accident, you had a good day.

Glad to see you got them working. It's very dangerous to drive without lights, hell even with lights people don't see you!

Sounds like there's some loose connection somewhere...
