At first the left running light and blinker in the side panel did not work I replaced bulb and that did not fix it. Now the left rear blinker and the same side panel does not work just the front parking lamp/turn signal. But when I turn the parking lights on and headlights none of them work at all.

I'm confused, your other thread says your park lights work?

Sounds like you need to check the fuses and then starting testing for power on all the different wires.

So when the head lights are on the parking light is not. When headlights are off the blinker part of the parking light works. The side marker light does not work at all gonna replace socket on that. And change bulbs again.

Check the ground lead for the parking/turn signal socket on that side. Parking light power comes from the brown wire, turn signal comes from the light blue. The side marker gets its ground through the turn signal bulb when the parking lights are on and the light will go out whenever the turn signal light flashes on. With the parking lights off the side marker should flash with the turn signal.
