Default Driver Side parking light/turn signal issue, need help.

My driver side parking light/turn signal only works as a turn signal. Its not a huge issue just a nuisance and looks funny. Any ideas on what the problem could be, besides wiring?

There was no indication in your first post that you had done anything yet.

Could be the fuse, M17, but then the left front side marker and left rear parking light would be out, too.

That leaves wiring, or loose connection in the socket.

Hi, all...New to JKF, but have a similar issue. 08 Wrangler X 2 door...Passenger front turn signal sometimes works, sometimes I get the "quick click" and does not work. Sometimes it will be working right, then without touching anything, go into the "quick click" and stop working. Does not light when headlights are on. Side marker does not work at all. All new bulbs, socket for side marker has been replaced. A couple of guys thought the multifunction switch could be the culprit.RONJENX, if you're out there, any thoghts? The switch is pretty cheap, and fairly easy to swap out, but don't want to waste time and $$ I could put elsewhere into the "X". Thanks, Saban
