				front parking lights not working any more
			 
			
			this is about my 911 SC 1982 
		
	
		
	
			
				so my front-passenger-side parking orange light was working front-driver-side not working today I noticed both are not working I replaced the front-driver-side BULB but still not working (I got the bulb from AutoZone, I hope is correct) is it possible that I messed up something with my headlights as I recently replaced the bulbs?) Fuse box is ok, the rear parking lights work as they should, so it can't be a fuse any recommendation welcome!! Francesco  |

			Check that the current bulbs are good using an ohmmeter.  
		
	
		
	
			
			
		
		
		
		
		
			Check for voltage at the bulb socket with a multimeter or test light. Are the front and rear bulbs on the same fuse?

			Check the ground wiring (brown) might be corroded in/at the housings, maybe knocked the wire.  
		
	
		
	
			
			
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	I don't have an ‘82 diagram where the side lamps body ground point is but mine is on front left side.  |

					so after few tests, it seems a ground wiring problem also ironically, I tried to pull the cable form the back and magically the bulb started working again.. at least I discovered it is a wiring problem nothing major...  |
