Folks,
I happened to notice this evening that my passenger side license plate light was out so I popped open the cover and swapped the lights (hoping it was just a bad light) but it seems that the holder is corroded so bad that the light is unable to make proper contact (green stuff all over it). I also checked with a volt-meter and seemed to be getting around 3V-4V. I tried scraping with a flat-head screw driver, hoping to clear out the gunk, but no such luck.
Has anybody else faced this issue? I searched around on google and it seems that people either had to replace the whole assembly (which needs painting etc) or some had luck using a nail file and sand paper etc and cleaned out the contacts. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
