...you would see that green arrow blinking rapidly.
Same deal here. Suffice it to say, this lamp isn’t the problem.
Bingo! It’s this one.
Before unscrewing the lamp housing, I find it easier to check for power underneath here first.
Oh hai there
Off with the lamp housing.
Hmm, got power going into the lamp housing...
*Wiggles the bulb a bit* Huh! just a loose connection!
So I popped the bulb out anyway, cleaned the old grease out, and put it back in with fresh grease. Good as new-ish!
That was easy.

Oh, nice! Even got the frequency just about perfect!
I need to learn how to do that.

When I worked at a Chevy dealership (12 years ago) the techs would do this or replace that whole board regularly. Easy money.

Yeah, I hear these boards go bad a LOT. Sooner or later, I’m sure I’ll have to replace mine, too.
In this case, that old grease was almost solid . It was like clay. Come to think of it, I might as well re-grease the other bulbs before another light “goes out”...
