Sounds like a connection somewhere. Get your voltmeter and measure voltage either at the socket or nearest connector. At the source you have 12V and at the lights, 0. Work your way either from the source, or from the lights, and measure voltages. Check connectors again, oxidized connectors look good but don't conduct.
Clean connectors with wet/dry sandpaper 600g or higher, tiny file if you have one. Spray with contact cleaner to remove debris. reconnect. |
