I am almost finished with my wiring, but I am running into one big issue. My headlights, running lights and blinkers don't work. I have back up lights and flashers. All the fuses are good. I am hoping someone has run into this problem and there is a quick fix.

Or if anyone has any recommendations on where to start I would appreciate the help.

All are fed through the parking light switch on top of the steering column, which has been known to go bad for no apparent reason. I had to bypass mine and everything worked perfectly.

Can you tell me if I need to open or close the circuit to bypass it?

Thanks

Make sure your hazard light switch is connected first. As I recall, nothing works if the hazard switch isn't in place.

Hazard light switch is in and works. I can hear the headlight relay clicking behind the firewall. Just not sending power.

What the hell is a parking light anyway?

Parking light does not make much sense to me either. Maybe it just provides lighting when you are parked so other drivers can see you.
I am having the same issue with headlights. I have parking lights, blinkers, clearance, brake, and backup lights, but no headlights at all. The relay clicks when I turn on headlights and high beams, but no power to the bulbs. We have confirmed power to the relay, but not on to any of the bulbs.

My hazard/blinker module buzzes when I turn the lights on. I am assuming something is shorted or wired back in wrong. Unless someone has some insight here.

I am conceding. My whole wiring harness is coming back out for the want of headlights, tail lights and blinkers. $2200 is starting to look like a bargain.
