I was replacing 2 bulbs on the right side, not even the parking lights they were the flasher and brake lights. when i put back the housing type thing back in its place i noticed one of the parking lights went on and of so i took it back out and moved the bulb in and out and then both parking bulbs went out. i heard a noise, sounded like a fuse blowing or a relay. not sure. from what i have read here it might be the actual light switch that burnt. seem weird that their is no fuse or relay before you burn the switch. any ideas or do i have to replace the switch.
