Abstract
We give an example of solutions of the connection problem associated with a certain system of linear $q$-difference equations recently introduced by Park. The result contains a connection formulas of the $q$-Lauricella hypergeometric function $\varphi_{D}$ and those of the $q$-generalized hypergeometric function ${}_{N+1}\varphi_{N}$ as special cases.

Key words: $q$-difference equations; $q$-hypergeometric series; connection matrices; Yang-Baxter equation.
