Defect
On some combination lamp (tail, stop, and turn signal) bulb holders, the terminals at the electrical connector are deformed. This allows an insulating substance to form at the contact points, causing poor continuity. As a result, the lamp may fail to illuminate or the turn signal may not operate correctly.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the affected bulb holder with the corrected part and replace the vehicle-side electrical connector with a new part.
