REAR LIGHTS

MY RUNNING LIGHT R/S REAR DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE CHANGED THE 10WATT BULB TO NO AVAIL. I KNOW THE BULB IS GOOD OF COURSE BECAUSE IT WORKS ON THE L/S. ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT TO DO TO FIX. I HAVE ALSO CHECKED THE FUSE ALL GOOD. BRAKE LIGHTS WORK AS WELL AS TURN SIGNAL. I JUST CANNOT FIGURE THIS ONE OUT. THANK YOU

RE: REAR LIGHTS

Did you just swap out the bulb? There might be a little corrosion in the socket that might have to be sanded out. That could be preventing the metal from making good contact.

RE: REAR LIGHTS

mission accomplished, found out that the contact was not being made. A little clean up and viola, but I think I need to replace the plastic panel due to some cracked pieces. Any ideas on where to find just the inside plastic that holds the bulbs?
