Hello, I have a 95 BMW E36 and I have a problem with the parking lights. When I turn them on from the normal switch my left parking light is not turning on but when I use the turn signal switch it turns on. Can you please tell me what is going on?

Does this happen with the engine running and the lights on?

Without more information, I can only guess at what might be the cause of your dilemma. I would start with inspecting the bulbs and bulb holders and perhaps a short test with proprietary software to uncover the demons within. You may need to seek a BMW professional mechanic for access to this software.
