you mean the parking lights? If yes, the come on only when the switch is set to parking lights or set to the main headlight/auto position and the lights are on. They are supposed to be off with the DRL's.

(((orange headlight area dont illuminate when hid's on)))

I didnt explain myself well enough in the last thread...the ORANGE parts of the headlights do not illuminate/light up when the hids are on. They light up and flash when I signal like normal, but when the hid's are on, their is NO orange on at all, same with when I have my DRL'S ON.....whats the deal with that? how do I fix it?

it could be bad bulbs or maybe a bad light control module.

There are 2 filiments for each bulb, a hi and lo. The low is dim and for parking. They should also flash when you lock/unlock your car. Try replacing the bulb.

are you talking about the turning signal? If you are, then your bulbs are bad. Same happened to me on the left side. When the lights were on the orange wasn't shining at all but when I turn on the tuning signal, they did. I replaced the bulb and it's all good. Give it a try, the bulb is like 2$
