that is kinda out of my knowledge.. in my country there’s hardly anyone who can assess and see where the problem is.. I guess ill wait out for some more answers, or I may end up buying another tail light that works properly.. thank you for the input guys

I would imagine the main electrical connector is the same between the left and right side.
Plug the working one in the main connector of the not working one.
Does it work? If yes, get a replacement for the bad one from a salvage yard.

plugged the connector and it lighted up correctly, but when I plug it into my tail light, the problem appears. Maybe there is something wrong with the circuit plate on the tail light?

Ok, sorry missed that part where you tired another light on that connector. Yes, it could be the plate that holds the bulbs or the connector itself. As someone said earlier, there was a TSB or recall on insufficient grounding.

however, I see that the rods on his tail light work properly, only there’s a flickering a bit on the foglight bulb. Do you still think it may be a ground issue?
