near side back light is not working?

Sprinter 311... My nearside rear back light is not working, Its as new bulb, I have looked for an appropriate brocken fuse but cant find one, any ideas... do both the back lights work of the same live feed? or are left and right different?

If all of the other side lights are working (front and back) you can assume that all fuses are ok anyway - so really you are looking for a fault in the bulb holder / cluster somewhere. Are all of the other lamps working in that particular cluster?

Thanks John... I have waggled the bulb but nothing... do you mean the Right & left lights are on the same circuit or on different circuits, also no feuses are listed (side lights)?!
Cheers

Usually these lamps are fused side to side...switch the lights on, waggle the bulb in its holder. If it lights up, its a corroded bulb holder that you have.
