The Fix, Been There

Mindy 28 April 2005 02:35:07
 Buy a new back light assembly for the side that is giving problems for 150
dollars and your problem is solved or better yet try the junk yard.....It is
the bulb holders piece that has gotten hot and melted and preventing good
contact.....you cant and I repeat cant buy the bulb holder assembly by
itself even though it has screws to remove just that part that is causing
the trouble.....I was denied warranty due to it being apart of a cosmetic
part......trust me, I know, I have battled this problem.....good
luck...quick way to test is switch assemblies from the good side and you
will see problem solved......

 For a hundred and fifty bucks, I could do a lot of revamping.

 Heck yeah. Doesn't seem like it would be too difficult to just take the
internals of a trailer tailight and install the bulb holder from that into
the GC taillight assembly.

 And driving sixty, fifty, and thirty year old cars, I'm forced to
do it all the time.

 You 'can' buy replacement pigtails that you can put in. I used them in
all my light fixtures when I rebuilt my CJ7. They are inexpensive
unfortunately, I would have preferred higher quality parts, but 5 years
later they all are still working.
