Does anyone know the routing and where it starts/stops in relation to the front parking lights? Trying to find out where I'm loosing power in the brown wire to the front. Does it go fuse box to switch to gem to the front passenger or driver side to the lights? I want to check power at each point and any plug junctions in the harness. Can't seen to find the info I'm looking for.still open to suggestions on what it could be.

I already told you that the GEM is not involved so take that off your mind.

So the rear works like I said, so where would I start in the front/where does this brown wire run to/from?
The front/rear split is in the Central Junction Box.

The front park lamp circuit comes out of the CJB on connector C270h, Pin 3 (The rear comes out C270j, pin 12). It then goes to a single splice S107 located somewhere at the "Engine compartment, rear". From that splice, it goes to the individual lights. There is no further location information in the factory manual.

Your open circuit is likely in the CJB, at C270h-3, or between the CJB and splice S107.

I don't have a good manual.I'm just going off info I've read on here, it looked like the gem and some security box were in the link also, maybe not. Is the cjb the fuse panel under the driver dash? Is there also a parking lamp relay somewhere?

Well, as frustrating as that was, the front parking lights now work.What fixed it, I don't know.I was looking for the brown wire behind the driver side fuse box and suddenly they now work.Thanks to all that had input.

That would suggest a loose or corroded connection back there.

At least you have a general area to focus on should it come back.

Good luck!
