Noah Harbinger Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I have no idea if this is an interesting problem, but I had a brake light out. Replacing the bulb seemed to fix it - but only for a little while. The next time I notice it's out, my roommate looks over my shoulder and says "is that corrosion on the contact?" I peer closer at it and see: Two holes! Kind of nuts to me, but maybe when the bulb burned out, it shorted, and the increased current melted through the contact. Still, I would have thought it would have blown a fuse before it melted a contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestead Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I think you could try cleaning the contact and then filling the holes with solder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
