Please assist ....cHecked all fuses, all are good. No parking lights and no front blinkers on either side working....what's the best way to remove front turn indicators?
No power coming to turn indicator or Parking lights once engaged.

Drivers side rear indicator light not working...do I REALLY have to remove the entire rear bumper to replace a bulb..?. Thanks for any suggestions

No.  I just did it a few minutes ago.  If some former owner was wise enough to leave the screws on the sockets a little loose, that's a big help.  Otherwise you can take off that little trim panel between trunk and bumper and get to the top one that way.  The bottom two you can kinds sorta get to from directly underneath.  It's a bitch !!!!!!!!!!!!!! , but it can be done.

Wouldn't think that all those bulbs would be bad at once, sounds like you need to check why you aren't getting power to the turn indicator (or indicators) and parking lights when they are switched on.  Bad wire(s), bad ground?
