welcome to NICO
the corner lamp's low dim is used with the parking lights and/or headlights, like a marker light
when you hit left or right turn signal, the high bright light will also go on to "aid" the driver to see around that turn.
here's an owners manual if you don't have yours in the glovebox:

The cornering light provides additional illumination toward the turning direction. The light on the turning direction side comes on when a turn is signaled with the headlights on.

maybe you have a short to ground around one of those bulbs...
