Boomerang light is out
 
One of my boomerang lights went out, and the light on the orange reflector next to it is also out. That makes me think this is a connection issue, but the wires behind the lights look fine. Any ideas?

I can't believe I didn't even think to check the fuses! I'll take a look at them tomorrow :bonk:

Yep, it's usually a bad bulb, blown fuse or a bad ground. ........ pick two..... it will be the third one ...... :D

Hmm, this is concerning. I double-checked through the fuses and they're all fine. I can't imagine I checked the wrong ones, I looked at everything that was related to the headlights

I believe the boomerangs/sidemarkers are listed as parking lights.

Just looked through the manual again. There are only fuses for fog lights, high beams, and low beams, nothing labeled parking lights.

Just have the dealer fix it.

Lol

But also be sure to let us know what the issue was!

Really struggling to find a good time to take it to the dealer, their Monday-Friday work schedule is also my work schedule. I decided to trace those wires in the meantime and noticed that there is a rusted grounding point in the engine bay that looks like it belongs to the right side parking lights. I'll scrub out that rust tomorrow and see if that fixes it.

This happened to me 3 months after buying the car. Any updates @JJJMan75?
