Technical uno 1100 parklights not working

[Floris]

Hi guys, i have a bit of a problem with my uncles uno 1100 mia.

The darn park lights decided to just stop working completely, the dims and brights work but not any of the park lights, not even the indicator on the cluster lights up that tells you the park lights are on, i have taken the steering shroud off and checked the headlight switch and the power does come through the connections through all the settings, the fuses are not blown and the globes are all brand new, has anyone else come across this problem before? where could the likely culprit be?

P.S. i've noticed that the wiring harness is from nissan, a lot of blue wires everywhere

sorry - sounds a bit of a strange problem,
are they switched by the ignition switch?,
or a dash-mounted switch..??,
Charlie

Its the first setting on the headlight switch, the second setting is the dims, I have tested it and it does supply power

Double check the fuse box , specifically for bad connections, had lotsa fun with my hooter , dropped the fusebox 3 times.
Uno's were assembled in South Africa by Automakers who also did/do Nissan and were in fact distributed by Nissan ,South Africa.
Get hold of a manual,it helps no end! You might still be able to get a pdf download of it if you do a search.

check the connection in the steering colume. Mine came loose, i forget wat was the colour of the wire. Hope this helps.

If its an automakers fiat check the fuses on the fuse box, there are two parklight fuses it should be left or right and I remember that one of the fuses controls the dash lights and number plate lights
