 The right tail light doesn't work. It works when I turn on the signal and step on the brake, but not when I turn on the lights. The fuses are fine and I tested the bulbs and they are ok. The back-up light does work. Should I replace the bulb sockets? Thanks.

How, exactly did you do that?

I switched the bulbs from left to right and right to left. They all work. The right side is not lighting up any bulbs.

Terst for power at the socket with a test light on that side.
