UCrewX5 you rock
I sanded the socket contacts but it didn't work. So I sanded the contact on the frame and wallaa it worked.
For the benefits of others, make sure there is good contact on both socket and frame. The bulbs may have a blackish tint in one spot which could mislead you to beleive its a burned bulb, but look closer and you'll find the bulb to be intact. Thx
