Default 04 ultra ls430 Front parking lights not working

Hi,
I recently purchase a 2004 LS430 Ultra package. I noticed that my front parking lights do NOT turn on... only the back is on.
On the light switch, I turn to the first click. It right next to the Off. I have tried with the engine running and with ACC on.

Any suggestion on how to fix it would be great. I have check all the fuse and they are all good.

thanks,
Sean

Yes the DRL does work which share the same bulb with the High beam.

Those are the side marker lights in amber. The bulbs go bad eventually. I had mine replaced last year. I actually replaced all the bulbs in the headlight assemblies...there are 4 per side. 1 xenon low beam, 1 daytime running light/high beam dual purpose bulb, 1 clearance lamp (the little bulb close to daytime running/high beam that keeps it lit up at night), and 1 side marker lamp. I left the fog lights alone.

so you were able to replace the bulbs or just tried to and failed? I would just pay someone to do it.
or maybe it's a fuse?
