Parking Lights Not Working (Other Lights Fine)

Terminals 1 and 3 should always have 12-15V (battery) on them. Either the fuse is blown or the wire is bad.

Or you could be looking at the connector wrong - the HS symbol in the upper left corner means the drawing shows the connector from the Harness Side (the side with the wires), not the side that plugs into something. Ie, you may have 1 and 2 reversed. Which, as I look at your readings, looks like it is very possible.

The fact that you never have power on terminal 5 tells me the relay is not working. Or you were testing with the relay unplugged.

Edit: If the fuse is blown or the wire is bad, you won't have power on either 1 or 3. If you reverse 1 and 2 in your charts, it makes more sense. Unless you took the readings with the relay out, it looks to me like you have a bad relay.
