Because Subaru in their wisdom made it so the lights switch off with ignition so you can't drain your battery but when parked at night you sometimes need to leave parkers on so your car is visible.

Has it got an alarm that flashes the parklights when you arm/disarm it? If so, that's the relay I'd be going to first.
