67 Parking Lights

So I cleaned all my bulb sockets, got everything working properly, jk headlights with relays, etc. Super happy except with the look of the parking lights not staying on with the headlights. I noticed on GMCPauls site that it says to just swap the switch for the 69-72 switch and for $20 it was worth not having to figure it out on my own. Got it from Paul’s and the parking lights don’t light up at all.

Am I missing something else that needs to be done? The later switch is missing a terminal compared to the early one, I popped the corresponding wire out of the connector and plugged in the early switch, no parking lights. Must be something else needed besides just a switch swap to get this working with the later switch. Hoping someone else knows and saves me time with the multimeter.

Re: 67 Parking Lights

Changing the switch gives you nothing more than a nw switch. You need to move the wire from the front lights on the switch connector the 1st picture shows how your 67 switch is wired. The 2nd shows 68 up.https://images.app.goo.gl/LFnNez3cF1Ka5fva9

Pictures and everything. Thank you. Moved the wire, plugged in the later style switch and my parking lights stay on like I wanted.
