SG...;

I agree with c1800...locate any breaks in the supply to the rear fixtures and correct...a Wiring Diagram and test light should make this relatively painless...and a bit of ACZP on connectors or brass lamp bases when you access then will keep them reliable...

Note: Ox-Guard is Gardener-Bender's product and it is carried by Blowes...Ideal's Noalox carried by Homeless-Depot is unsuitable as the viscosity is waaaay too low which leads to it running away from the point of application...I recommend strongly against its use in cars, where elevated engine compartment temps will even exacerbate the effect! Grease based Ox-Gaurd or (Burndy's) Penetrox-A are the way to go!
