No Parking Lights

From the time I bought my 1997 LC, the front parking lights have never worked. I hear the relay closing when I turn the switch, and the front turn signal work. Does anyone know if there are any connectors between the front parking lights and the relay panel on the drivers side floor board

Check the bulbs first. If the relay is clicking, but no light, then the bulbs are probably toasted.

Bulbs are fine, the turn signals work fine and and there is only one buld in that housing, unless I looked at it wrong.

The turn signals and running lights are in two separate locations. (I've actually switched the two, but that is irrelevant)

Pff. That was LAST year. You should see it now

Besides, if I get it repainted, it will all get torn up from the trails.
