Tail Light Problems on Wagon 200 1990

On your sockets, you've got 3 ears that contact the circuit board strips in the housing. Remove each socket, give them a light sanding to clean off corrosion, and bend them a bit so they'll contact the housing with more pressure. Also lightly sand the contacts in the housing if they're cruddy (I know they are, they all are).
I've seen a lot of lights that needed the sockets turned back a hair, and then work fine until messed with the next time.
