2008 Buick LaCrosse taillights don't illuminate. Driver information system states "Service Park lamps" when lights are on.

Asked by jcrisan Mar 15, 2014 at 11:12 PM about the 2008 Buick LaCrosse CXS FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My front parking lamps and rear taillights won't illuminate. Both the front and back will blink when the turn signals are on and the brake lights work, but none stay lit.  When lights come on with darkness, the DIC states "service park lamps".  I put brand new bulbs in both front and back, and replaced the parking lamps relay in the fuse box with no luck.  Any suggestions?

I assume you also looked at the fuses, the stop and signal is the other feed line from harness although same bulb

BINGO! Somehow I overlooked the fact that there were fuses for both the hazard/turn signal and the parking lamps. $3.29 later, I have parking lamps and taillights again. THANKS! Strangely, thought, the DIC is still showing the "service park lamps" message. Hmmm....
