3rd gen Tailights
My driver's side tailight is out again. Seems to be some sort of loose connection as bulb is good. Brakelight works fine. Since I've seen this on at least a dozen other 4 Runners on the road, almost always on the same side, hoping someone's diagnosed this problem already. Any thoughts?

I've had this problem myself. The first time I assumed it was the bulb and replaced it. It worked fine for a day or 2, then went out again. Suspicious, I checked the bulb and found that it was good. I sprayed contact cleaner in the socket, wiped the contacts down and put the same bulb in. The problem has not resurfaced in over 9 months.
