    Riddle me this...

    Alright, so I got a lighting issue.
    Parking light on the passenger side headlight does not work. It works with the blinker, and also with the alarm lock/unlock.

    Bulb appears to be fine - and I'm going crazy trying to track this down.

    Got any ideas?

    yeah - i came to the conclusion that it must be two different bulbs - although i can't figure out where the other on is. if i turn on my parking lights, and my four ways, you can tell that it is two different bulbs. but where the hell is the other one!!!

    For the 2001 TT, ETKA shows a H12V/21W for the blinker and another small one, a H12V/6W, perhaps for the parking/city light.

    Don't know if that helps any with what you already know.

    Does your TT have halogens or HIDs?

    Okay here's the deal... There are two bulbs...

    The parking light bulb doesn't have a wire harness on the back of it so its easy to miss. Its a little plastic plug you twist out and its got connections that touch the headlight housing on the inside.

    I will be taking my bumper off tomorrow and if I feel frisky and if I can find my camera I can pull my headlight housing to get a good picture for you.

    Its sometimes a PITA to get out... its twists to remove it. Mine was crazy tight in there on one side and the other side came right out.
