I finally took a look at my non-functioning tailights yesterday.  I found
that power is getting to the lamps, but not to the bulbs.  I was able to
clean the contacts and get all but one function working on one light.
This is on a early spit lamp.  The running lights portion of the bulb is
feed through a red w wire.  This wire is crimped to a L shaped piece, then
rivited to the piece that connects to the bulb.  The last contact I need
to clean is the one rivited together.  Any ideas on how to clean this
contact?  Or should I follow my instict and run a bead of solder across
the two pieces?
