I had a hyper blinking tail light , removed bulb from other side to test then that one started hyper blinking. I opened both up to clean contacts and found that the left side had tons of corrosion and rust. The right side was okay.
Turns out the flasher relay was going out. However, is there anyone who professionally rebuilds the taillight assembly not the lens obviously mine are pretty good no cracks. There is a lot of rust and corrosion and not sure I can get it to perfection without help Thanks |

be careful of ebay.
i bought a housing a couple of years back, and it was cracked and smashed. i had to epoxy it back together again to be fair, the seller gave me a credit be careful when abrading the contact surfaces. i don't think that it is all copper |
