These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Side Marker Question
Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I just put clear euro side markers on my car. They look great. Pretty straight forward install just plug and play, right? They don't work. I even tried putting the old ones back and they don't work either. Is there something I'm missing? Is their a reset or something that has to occur? They should just go on w/ my blinkers right? Any help would be appreciated.

POST 2Original post

Oh-oh. If you've put the original ones back, and now even those don't work, you may have disconnected something. They go on with the lights, not blinkers. It's supposed to be just plug and play. Did it on mine, no problem. At this point, you may want to check the connections and wiring.

POST 3Original post

No, by default they do not go on with your blinkers (not in the US). They should be on with parking or headlights. If not, check the fuses. BTW... there is a wiring hack that will make them flash with the turn signals. If you are interested let me know and I will dig it up. Loren (99 996)

POST 4Original post

Loren, I'm interested. You can either post it, or e-mail me. Thanks.

POST 5Original post

Here is a link to the side marker turn signal hack. Credit goes to Sandy for looking at the ROW schematic and figuring out how do this easily. The instructions look harder than it really is. <a href="http://wa4ekg.home.att.net/996mods/sidemarkermod.html" target="_blank">Sandy's Side Marker Turn Signal Hack </a> Loren (99 996)

POST 8Original post

Great tip and thank you. Saved it myself for a rainy day project : ). Regards. Mike

POST 9Original post

One word on the hack: when parking/headlights are on, the side marker will blink alternately vs the front/rear blikers . A bit odd to look at. They all blink simultaneously if the headlights/parking lights are off.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
