Corner Light Problems

I am having some problems with my passenger side corner light. I did the turn the bulb around trick a few months ago and everything has been working great since then. Recently I noticed the light would not come on a first but would come on later down the road. Today it happened and I went out and hit the light and it came on. Does this sound like a bulb or a wiring problem. I also have my fogs rewired and washer lights that tie into the corner lights. Do you think the wiring is messed up or do I need a new bulb? I took the bulb out and looked at it yesterday but it looks fine. Any suggestions welcome! Thanks!

Sometimes, the bulb gets loose in the sovket when you put in in backwards. This can cause your problem.

Take the bulb out and "smush" the socket a little with some pliers. This way the bulb will fit snug.
