I've had some of the front wiring harness replaced due to brittle insulation. I notice that the front sidelights switch off when I go to the main lamps. Is this correct ? The direction indicators work okay. It's been some time since the car was running and my memory has failed me. Thanks in advance Guy

In the US, we used to call them parking lights, and at one time it was illegal to drive with only them on.
My 2000 Dodge truck has parking lights, also has fog lights, which I guess are properly driving lights which used to be called fog lights which in the expensive new cars seem to be on all the time because they are controlled by sensors... :roll:
