Hey guys, I have an electrical issue on my hands. My right rear blinker and brake light (same bulb) only work when they feel like it, which is to say maybe 25% of the time. Lights at all other corners are fine, which means the turn signal relay is fine, correct? The blinker stalk works fine. Only when I hit my right blinker it rapidly flashes on the dash and my front turn signal blinks twice as quickly, leading me to believe that there is a short in the wire leading to this bulb.
There are three bulbs in each of my tail lights. One running light, one reverse light, and one blinker/brake light combo which is the light in question. My running light and reverse light on this side work fine. Only this one bulb doesn't light. Nothing. Replaced the bulb and the problem persists.
So what's my best course of action? Where are the most obvious places to test? I have a multimeter, but what do I do? Just try pull this one wire out of the frame (wires are on the inside of the drivers side framerail and are very hard to get to) and then visibly check for a nick in the wire until I find something? Is there anything else it could be?
