When I turn my parking lights on and put my car into drive one back up light will turn on and the other will turn off. When I put it in reverse the back up that turns on when I put it in drive turns off and the other turns on but when I don't have my parking lights on my backup lights work fine. Also my low beam headlights wont work. I've replaced my back up light bulbs, the fuses for all four of my headlights, and the backup light fuse but I still have the same problem. I've done everything I could think of on my own except change the headlight bulbs. This may be a stupid question but could anybody help me? My car is an automatic 98 Civc Ex. Thanks in advance.

Re: Help

The parking lights and high beams work fine. Could it be the wiring or the switch? Or should I just take it somewhere?

Wow you got some messed up electrical problems. If the wiring wasnt tampered with then take it somewhere and save yourself the headache.... if you dont wanna pay, trace the wires back from the bulbs and look for frays or crossed wires or the wrong wire.
