Hi, yesterday night I had to pull over to the roadside and being quite dark I wanted to show my car being there as much as I could using both parking lights and warning signals (4 blinking turn signals) on. To my surprise, front parking lights have switched off when warning lights were on while rears continued to stay on.
The car is a T6.1 with the dodgiest halogen headlight and no auto position on the switch just the regular off-parking-on settings. The switch was on the middle for the parking lights but I also tried with the turn signal switch to the left or right which resulted in only one rear but also no front parking lights to be on (so rears as expected and fronts similarly no). NB, turning OFF warning signals the fronts turned on instantly so bulbs, switch, etc are all okay. NB2 my DRLs (which are the same H15 bulbs than those for parking and high beam) turn off when parking brake is engaged (which I believe is a customization) so I tried to put it in gear and release hand brake just to see but no change, only warning signals affect front parking lights, nothing else I tried.
Any idea folks whether this can be changed so that parking lights work whenever I turn them on?
