My rear parking lights are driving me nuts! 
The front parking lights on the 65 1500S square work great. Front and rear directionals work fine as well as the brake lights. I have no license plate light, no interior luggage light and no rear parking lights. All fuses are good (#1 and #2 on my 10 fuse box) Fuse #1 covers luggage, left tail light and both front parking lights. Number 2 covers license plate and right tail light.
What am I not seeing? Where do the electric lines join before the fuse box? maybe there is a short there? Is there a relay that I might have missed when I converted over to 12 volt? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Start tracing the power. Since you have power at the 1 and 2 fuses at the fuse box, start there and see if you have power on down the wires to the rear.
That 66 Euro diagram on my site is a 10 fuse fuse box, and has 3 fuses for the park lights. 1, 2, and 7. You say you have the 10 fuse fuse box, so yours should be wired that way.
There are 2 seperate terminals on a head light switch for the park lights. Front and rears are seperate.
