Rear red side marker light not working..

[groundhogy]

... Its got voltage there, its just that the fixture is so corroded
it is not making contact. In fact one of the contacts just fell out
in my hands a couple of minutes ago.

I have the trailer inspection on Thursday!

I must pass because I don't want to have to drag the trailer all the way
down to the inspection place just to prove that the one light works.

Any ideer where I can get some innards for one of these side lamps?
Or can I buy a different one and pull the innards and put them in my
lamp fixture?

I have a 90 excella.

thanks

If you can measure voltage and you have tested the bulb it is a bad ground. You can clean the surfaces between fixture and the trailer body itself.

Ok, I came up with a solution.
I had some of those LED panel lights with the sticky back.
I just connected that in and viola. I pass inspection.
It actually may be a better simpler solution to the dual 194 bulbs
that were in there.

the other option was that I was just going to buy two sockets at the auto store and fasten them in there somehow.

anyway case solved.
thx.
