your factory radio was tied into the dash lights. the dash lights, running lights are all tied together on the first click on your headlight switch. they have their own fuse separate from the headlights. check the fuses. Park lamp fuse 15A in the underhood fuse box left side of the engine compartment. Make sure the wires to your radio are not compromised.

is it the service engine soon? (SES) or a maintenance light?

If the fuse for the parking lights is good, does it have power? power out of the fuse box will be the brown wire for the parking and tail lights. there is a relay in the fuse panel that the fuse is in. it's the automatic light control relay. it gets turned on by the body control module. (white wire grounds the relay to turn it on)
