Question Front bumper - side - direction / indicator lights

Just wondering if anyone has any tips on the bumper lights on the sides (the tiny little ones on the front bumper).

I realized mine weren't working, and when I opened the housing I saw that there was no bulb on either side. I purchased the right type of bulb and installed both, but I get absolutely nothing... any ideas?

These usually fill with water and the socket contacts corrode away. You'll probably need to replace the socket. I just bought a generic socket at the local parts store and carved it to fit.

Thank you for the tip! I did try some electrical cleaner in there, but it was a no go

I will give it one more go with a toothbrush and then should that not work I will check the local Lordco for a replacement/generic
