Pop the lamp-holder out, pull off the connector and examine the traces on the
rear of the lamp-holder in _good_ light. It's not unknown for heavy objects in
the trunk/boot to hit the rear of the light cluster and crack one of the
lands. These cracks can be _bitches_ to spot - BTDT last month.
(The one I found was invisible from a foot under an office desk lamp. I found
it with a 20x stereo microscope after tracing it with a continuity buzzer.)
