I have a '97 Firebird and the lights are on whenever the car is running. But it's not the parking lights that are on, it's the turn signals (double filament bulbs). This has caused the bulb sockets to become really baked and I've wondered if this was rigged up by a previous owner. What are your lights doing or not doing?

So if your 'bird is like mine, when your turn on the parking lights, that bright filament should go off and the dimmer one should be on. Is this related to your previous post?

No other 4th gen guys can help out on this??? :dunno:

All I can say is check the manuals out and see if it's a relation to daytime running lights?
