Default Parking Lights indicator

Hi Guys,

I have a 2015 non-f sport model (if that matters in this case). I am wondering when you use your parking lights, which is one turn up from auto or one down from headlights, do you see any indicator in the instrument cluster? Unless I am loosing it, I could swear that I used to see a green symbol that looks like lights shining in the opposite direction. I used my parking lights yesterday and no indicator came on so way to tell if they are on aside form looking at the stalk. The actual lights are working fine and so are all the other lights in the car (i specifically checked all electric equipment to rule out a fuse).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Always keep it on Auto.
But if you if you go 1 up from Auto you are in DRL mode
If you go up 1 more (all the way up) your DRL+LOWBEAM turns on (green symbol shows)

And no indicator comes on when you switch to DRL mode. BUT the DRL do turn on.

The symbol you are thinking of is probably for the fog lamps.

I was able to find a good picture of the stalk to show which symbol I am referring to. In this post if you scroll a bit you will see a picture:

so the second symbol from the top (right below headlight position on the left side) indicates that you have parking lights on - do you guys have the same symbol light up in the instrument panel?

No indicator in the instrument panel for parking lights. Only low beams, high beams, and fog lights (if equipped).
