On a hot afternoon, check to see if your parking light is lit up or not. I changed 2 batteries putih putih bcoz of this. Apparently, the light switch 'shorts' during hot day. U need to spray WD40 into the crack of the switch and into the steering column where the signal stalk is. Then it'll solve the problem

my mech did this: wrapped that switch part with black tape so it wont touch and voila! it was fixed...if i can still rmb it correctly, prob was when it is hot, d switch thingy will expand n touch = lights on...
