Thats how they are. You have to change the wires on the top of the switch itself if you want it to work like all other cars.

Believe it or not, there is nothing wrong with your light switch. This is how the factory made it. If you were able to get an owners manual, it would confirm this. 120Y's were the same too, but i don't know about the later Sunny models.

Yes. i know it seems a bit bizzarre, but try not to wory too much, & simply get accustomed to it like everyone else, & your night time motoring will be happy motoring.

By the way, 1200s in north america work in the normal fashion: pull light switch out one click, parking lights are on. regardless of dimmer switch position. Which matches the JDM wiring diagram too. I wonder why the australian 1200s were rewired?
