Fron parking lights stopped to work
Hi!
I have an issue which I can not figure out.
My front parking/side light does not work anymore, on 1st gen IS200 (RHD).
At the same time, tail lights and license plate lights are OK.
Taking into account that both, left and right, are off, I'd expect this to be a fuse problem. But I can not find any fuse specific only to from parking lights.
Is there also hidden fuse box on first-gen IS as on the second-gen IS?
Thanks!

Checked if you have current in the connector on the headlights?
I have worked at a Toyota workshop for so long time that I know how it works,
Customer: Oh both my lights went out at the same time.
Me: Are you sure, because I saw you drive by here 3 days ago and you had only one working headlight at the time so... When did you really check your lights last time

They indeed went out at the same time Half hour delay between first and second check.
In the mean time I cleaned throttle, but I removed only air intake, which is pretty localized, and only electronics I touched was disconnecting accu, And when I connected it back, parking lights didn't work anymore.
and, obviously , mechanical damage of the wires to both bulbs is very unlikely, as they go on different sides, and I was working in the middle,
And it is not a first time I clean throttle, and work on this car. Which means I supposedly know my ways and, theoretically, should not do anything stupid

engine harness is separate from the body harness, so I don't think the light problem is related to what you did.
have you checked the bulbs, to see if they are burnt? Fog lights work just fine? Agree with the other poster.....check the bulb and fuse for the lights......
