Side Marker Lights? 200 1990

Hello,

Quick question: Are the rear turn signal bulbs to remain on when the lights for night driving are on? Or are they only on when the turn signal is on or hazards are on?

Thanks!

    Do the directionals appear to be normal when you use them? Are the brighter than the steady-on light when the directionals are off?

    Either way, I suspect a ground problem and the lights are back fed. check for corrosion, ground attachments.

    Consider looking at the bulbs/sockets before doing anything - stranger things have been done than adding dual filament bulbs to your tail lights.

    the rear turn signal bulbs only illuminate when the turn signal or flasher is on. They should not come on with headlights/running lights/brake lights.
