Parking light out error code message

[Rmack11]

I just recently purchased a 2019 dodge ram 1500 Bighorn classic with a 5.7 hemi in it every time I drive at night with the low beams on I constantly get this parking light error message, All the lights seem to be working fine. I heard it could be an LED light to corroded socket or even the computer module. Does anybody have any solutions to this problem?

Your truck most likely left the factory with Quad style headlights which means none of the head or tail lights came from the factory with LEDs.
You'll need to pull the head and possibly taillights to see what bulbs are used to troubleshoot the issue.
It's not all that uncommon to have LED replacement bulbs work fine for years then start to having problems where the vehicle reports bulb problems.

Check to see if all the bulbs are working in the 3rd brake light .
AFAIK, a failed bulb in the 3rd brake light could appear as a parking light bulb out signal.

Could you not see the bulbs on quads by looking through the front side?

To the OP, the bulbs will either have filaments for incandescent bulbs or chips for LED bulbs.

My 14 has LED tails and because of a few of the individual LEDs being out on driver side it has warned that the left taillight is out for a few years now. Doesn't bother me and since I'd have to replace the entire taillight to fix it at last time I looked they were running $250. I can live with the notice every time its started. Even more so now that my daughter is now driving it as her daily.

Check to see if all the bulbs are working in the CHMSL. AFAIK, a failed bulb in the CHMSL could appear as a parking light bulb out signal.

Better to call the CHSML light as it's more commonly known name of 3rd brake light on the back of the cab Michael, when dealing with a new member

Yes, I know. Many new people who visit here haven't yet figured out how to use a search engine. That's unfortunate, as the introduction of AI integration has made it much easier to resolve than it once was.

Nobody calls it by that,even if you go to a dealer,it's generally always called the 3rd brake light,as the majority of people know what that means

Yes, I've spent too much time word-searching through virtual service manuals, but I can adjust.

We don't want to get too simple or we will all be replaced with AI bots.
