2006 Tucson: Noticed today when I turned off car, exited and locked car tha the marker, parking and tail lights were on. Looked inside and the light switch was in the off position. Waited a few minutes no change. Opened door turned light switch on then off and the lights went out and stayed out. Also recently noticed when I use my turn signals the switch does not turn signals off most of the time. Any ideas what is causing these problems? Is there a history of this with 2006 Tucsons?

Hi,

As temporary fix, please unplug the battery from the car when you're leaving it for more than 15 minutes. This should stop it from being drained by your parking lights.

Thank you.

no car told
not one clue, year,maker or model
Tail spark, parks go to 4sides 4 corners and lic, lamps. 10 lamps.
even more with parks on mirror L/R

on newer cars there is no fuse,
they use BCM, the body brain.
and it uses smart electronic regulators for lamps
that self correct if the short is cured.
common shorts are, trailer hitch hack jobs.
or collision damage never fully corrected.
MOST BCM slip the park feeds 4 waYS, F/R AND L/R
SO TELL IF ALL 10 LAMPS PARK ARE BAD

THE WORD TAIL WAS FOR TIN LIZZY DAYS, 1 REAR TAIL
AND NOW IS 10 PARKS. OR MORE.
NO CAR TOLD OR I'D OF POSTED THE SCHEMATIC TO IT.

Park, Tail and Marker Lamps
The park, tail, and marker lamps, including the license lamps, are turned ON when the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK or HEADLAMP position, or anytime the headlights are requested. The PARK LAMPS fuse in the rear fuse block supplies battery positive voltage to the PARK LAMP relay switch contacts. The PARK LAMPS fuse in the rear fuse block also supplies battery positive voltage to the PARK LAMP relay coil. When the park lamps are turned ON, the body control module (BCM) energizes the park lamp relay. Current flow is from the PARK LAMP relay to their respective park and marker lamps and to ground. Ground is provided at G101, G102, G401, and G403.

What about them ? What front lights ? Headlamps , park lamps, marker lamps ? They don't work ?

Exterior Lamps
The exterior lighting system consist of the following lamps:
• The Headlamps
• The Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
• The Clearance Lamps (Y92 roof rack only)
• The Cornering Lamps
• The Front Fog Lamps
• The Rear Fog Lamps (Export)
• The Park, Tail and Marker Lamps
• The Turn Signal Lamps
• The Stop Lamps
• The Backup Lamps

Park, Tail, Marker, License, and Clearance Lamps
The park, tail, marker, license, and clearance (Y92 only) lamps are turned on when the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK or ON position or anytime the headlights are requested. The I/P BATT fuse in the engine wiring harness junction block supplies battery positive voltage to both the park lamp relay switch contacts and the park lamp coil circuit. The body control module (BCM) provides a ground or control circuit to the park lamp relay coil circuit. When the park lamps are turned on, the BCM energizes the park lamp relay. Current flow is from the park lamp relay to the individual park lamp circuit fuses and to their respective park, tail, marker, and license lamps. The front park and marker lamps are grounded at G107 and G103. The tail lamps are grounded at G401 and G402. The license lamps are grounded at G401. When equipped with the Y92 roof rack option, the clearance lamps are grounded at G302. If the driver places the headlight switch in the ON position after the ignition switch has been turned OFF, the park, tail, marker, license, and clearance lamps will remain on until turned off or the battery runs dead.
The T PARK fuse in the rear fuse-relay block supplies battery positive voltage to a separate park lamp circuit connected to the trailer wiring harness.

The park, tail, license, and marker lamps are turned ON when the headlamp switch is placed in either the HEAD or PARK lamp positions, or anytime the automatic light control (ALC) turns the headlamps ON. When the headlamp switch is placed in the park lamp or headlamp positions, ground from G304 is applied through the signal circuit to the BCM indicating the park lamp request. In response to this signal, the BCM applies ground through the park lamp relay control circuit energizing the PARK LP PCB Relay. With the relay energized, battery voltage is applied through the switch side of the relay, both park lamp fuses, and the supply voltage circuits illuminating the park, tail, marker, and license lamps.

Do your headlamps work ?
Park/Marker/License/Tail Lamps
Voltage is applied to the turn/headlamp switch at all times. When the turn/headlamp switch is in the PARK or the HEAD position, voltage is applied to the following components:
?€¢
The park lamps

?€¢
The marker lamps

?€¢
The tail lamps

?€¢
The license lamp

The front marker lamps are grounded through the turn filament of the respective front park/turn lamp. The front marker lamps light as a result.
The automatic lamp control function turns on the park lamps and the headlamps. This action occurs when the ambient light sensor determines that the exterior lamps should be turned ON based on the amount of available light. When the BCM grounds the park lamp relay, voltage is supplied directly to the park lamps, bypassing the turn/headlamp switch assembly. When this action occurs, the following conditions exist:
?€¢
The automatic lamp control relay is grounded.

?€¢
The headlamps turn ON. Refer to Headlights/Daytime Running Lights (DRL) Circuit Description .

The lamps turn OFF when the BCM does not ground the park lamp relay or the automatic lamp control relay. This action is caused by the following conditions:
?€¢
The available light reaches a predetermined level.

?€¢
The ignition switch is turned to the OFF position

they are dual filament bulbs so the tail light filament might have blown and not the stop light , replace the bulb to check

Duplicate the issue ? You mean the lights are working now ?
The turn signals and brake light circuit is one and the same. The parking lights are on a different circuit. The parking lights get power from the headlight switch and don't travel thru the turn signal switch.
So have you checked the park fuse for power ?
The location of the fuse should be in your owners manual.

parking, yes, tail ,park.
(the correct name is park toy calls them tail, tell me how a tail lamp works in front of car, this name is from 1920cars , that only had 1 or 2 tail lights. (fun history that, with funny names)

if actually park lamps. 1st click of head light? switch?
there are over 20 park lamps in car, inside and out.
side markeres, front park lamps
all dimmable lamps inside are park too. all dead>?
then the park relay is bad (tail/park) or fuse. blown.

Sounds like a blown fuse....go through them and see which one is blown or check your owners manual..it will tell you what fuse is used for what and will save you on the guess work.

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/matthew_d24b835e574ef6ca
