Have searched other forums for a clear answer but haven't had any luck. Recently have had an issue come up with my 14 2500 slt. Drivers side tail light is out. However brake and turning signal work fine. It is an incandescent multi filament bulb. Replaced bulb, and subsequently the socket due to possible damage due to a short or excessive heat at some point. It was burnt pretty good. Thought maybe a fuse, but from what I could find out the fuse that would protect tail light function also takes care of brake, and turn signL functions. Was advised to check the wiring harness... tried to even find a replacement with no luck. Any ideas? I have seen that this is a fairly common problem but haven't seen an actual solution. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Clean the contacts and check the harness. Someone in the 4th Gen section might have had a similar issue.
