97 Z3 - Even after replacing the bulbs, the driver's side parking light and the side marker light are non-functioning, but they work as turn signals. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Sounds like a fuse problem.
Welcome @Dave Berquist,
I'm no techy so can't answer your question, but I'm sure someone who can will be along soon.
Cheers, Gary

Well, I have to admit I was skeptical - I don't think I have even looked in the fuse box on this car in the 6 years we have had it, and having a separate fuse for just the left-side parking light seemed like overkill, but you were right on! A humble thanks.
id imagine that if it was a fuse there wouldnt be any life so my thoughts would go to the relay, have a look under the hood at your diagram on the fuse box and try figure it out, you may need to go to the net either, diagrams for fuses and relays are available

Since the bulbs do work, I doubt it's a fuse. And since they are such low wattage, I doubt they have relays. I think the problem might be in the switching. Since the turn signals work OK, perhaps the head light switch is the problem, as its first position turns on the parking and marker lights.
