first thing i would do is check the connection point on the bottom left side under the trunk carpet, theres a little ditch under the carpet and a connection for all your rear lights.

I Checked That Out And It Seems Ok I Noticed That Every Thing Works Good The Brake Lights Turn Signals And Head Lights Even The Cluster Light I Think It Might Be The Switch But Im Not Sure

wait, whats the problem?
are they not working properly?

one of the bulbs is probably burnt out if the turn signal doesnt work on one side only

Every Thing Works Properly Turn Signals,head Lights,brake Lights,cluster Except The Parking Lights On The Back The Front Ones Work Properly,so I Was Thinking It Might Be The Switch But Im Not Sure.

Please Do Not Capitalize Every Word You Type. It Is Very Distracting And I Am Sure That Nobody Will Want To Help You If They Can't Follow Or Are Distracted By What You Type.

ok... is the problem with your rear parking lights?
i dont think that they are on any other time except when you have the headlight switch pulled half way out.
check the bulbs first.

another thing to check is your taillight assembly.
if one of the bulbs is out in your taillight assembly, you may not realize it because the bulbs are dual filament. if one of the filaments is gone, the bulb will still work, but not correctly, and it will cause the other bulbs to not work right.

it is also possible that the parking lights you are having problems with are in wrong, or you are using the wrong bulbs.

you could replace the switch too, but i'd check everything else first.
it seems to me (although i'm no expert on electronics) that if the switch was bad, the front parking lights would be out as well as the rear ones.
