Default side view marker lights???

The marker light under both of my side view mirrors will not work. Would anyone have the same problem and could tell me where to start looking so I could fix them. I have checked the fuses and all are good, also the bulbs are good. Thanks Paul When I purchased the car a lot of the fuses were missing along with relays. I'm not sure if I might have missed a fuse or relay some were .

I noticed that the siren does not work also but the light's flash, would they be tide in together on the same circuit? I have the weekend off so I'll be in the driveway trying to figure it out.

Stupid question, but you are checking to see if they work when the button on the remote is pressed, correct? That is the only time they come on.

Your talking about the white light's on the bottom of the side mirrors. They only time they work is when you set the alarm?

No, they only come on when you press the yellow button on the remote.

Well that's why they don't come on.

You can also activate them with the follow me home lighting by shutting off the car, pulling the turn signal stalk toward you once, then locking the car. They will stay on for a certain amount of time, depending on programming.

I tried the turn signal and they worked when I set the alarm. I would think they would have designed them to come on when you exit your car. Thank's for the insite es6t
