I would check all of your under dash fuses to make sure nothing is blown

both sides arent working?

the driver side wiring for the parking/turn lamps are blue and grey w/black grounds.

passenger side is blue and brown w/black grounds.

i would check the fuses once more and the headlight switch(ground and harness). could of fried one of those wires somehow.

good luck.
