Yes sir. All my other lights work. Blinkers work. But tail light on the passenger side does not. I changed 2 of the 3 bulbs and the fuse, but it still will not work.

your going to need to get a test light and check the power at the socket I've seen corrosion on the back of the socket and has caused lights not to work

I changed out the circuit board just to be sure that was not the problem and the lights are still not working? If one of the bulbs are no good, would that make the light not work? Just curious if that might be the issue.
