Need HELP from 07/08 owners

Need to know what is illuminated when the lights are on, and the parkers are on, does the led bar light up as well as the brake light or just the led bar and when the brake is applied the bake light is illuminated

When the parking lights or headlamps are on, the LEDs are on. The brake light is separate and lights up when you step on the brakes. (We do not have LED brake lights)

the parker is the light that is on when the headlights are on, it gets brighter when you hit the brake. just need to know if this is on when the headlights are on or does it just light up when the brake is hit

thanks

the parking lights are LED, the CELIS rod type lights

the braking lights are just a regular bulb

the parking lights should be on anytime your headlights are on, low beam, parking lights, or just DRL

I still have no idea what parkers are....parking lights? Taillights?
What does it mean "the brake lights have no parkers on at all"?
On MY car, any time the car is moving or on, the LED taillights are on, as well as the angel eyes. When I hit the brake, depending on how hard I hit it, four (4) regular bulb brake lights come on (usually two) and an LED high mounted brake light.

If I interpret your question correctly, yes.

If you mean "parkers" as in the LED bars, they are on when the headlights are on. This is what your car looks like when parking lights or headlights are on.


The brake lights are a separate, normal bulb that light up when you step on the brakes.
