Blinker Problem: Part 2

Hey everyone I posted about this earlier. Here is the link https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=201444

I think I found the problem. I think it is the actual socket the light bulb goes into. The light works in the socket but it is not that bright. I put the left side marker bulb(the good side) into the right side and the light was not bright so I think it is the actual socket. So I could just get another socket with the wires and attach it to mine right? Do you guys think that will work? Thanks.

Yeah, you can do that, but first, check for scale and rust buildup on the contacts inside the socket. You can't miss it if it's there-it's greenish-white. I have a flashlight with the same problem-sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. But those are the only two solutions and causes that I can think of for that socket.
