is any of the wiring cut or crimped anywhere? that could be a small problem.

hey bud! thanks for the reply but, none of the wires are cut or crimped.i would never have guess it,it happen to be my tcm that was bad.i paid 163.00 for it.i truly recommend not getting it from a junk yard,it may be cheap,but it will hurt the performance of your car.

I own a 99 jeep wrangler.. I discovered this issue a few years back.. One trick I lean when my lights start to act up.. is grab some find grit sanding paper, or even an eraser.. you will need to remove the light housing.. and then remove the bulb.. in some case the bulb maybe a halogen and if your fingers make contact without he glass of the bulb, it will shorten the bulbs life if not blow it out all together.

taking the eraser or fine sand paper.. you can sand the contact points of the bulb (assuming the bulb is not burned out) and sand or erase the housings contact points..

Here is what happened.. heat and moisture can build up in side the housing then settle on the bulb, Mainly the contact points.. and case corrosion of these points..

In many cases.. if one bulb burns out.. or even losses contact.. the rest will not work.. (I said in some cases). Once you ahve checked the bulb, contact points and even the housings gaskets.. Replace the housing and the bulb according to the Haynes Manual designed for your car or this link below.
