When turning the light switch on for parking lights, the rear taillights will come on, but the front parking lights will not. When the light switch it turned all the way on, the headlights will come on, but the taillights won't work. Has anybody seen this before? Could it be a bad switch for the lights?

Can you be more specific as to year and exact model?

Sounds like more than just the switch. Would help if you told us what
year the car is. Have you checked the bulbs in the front parking
lights? Do the dash & instrument lights work properly, or do they come
on with the switch in "parking lights" and off again with the switch in
"headlights" position (i.e. do they follow your tail lights)?

Please let us know whether or not you recently purchased the car. If you
did, the prior owner is probably the person that screwed up the wiring.
