The socket has nickel plated connector that loose it "springyness" thus making very poor contact. Mine gives warning in rainiy cold day, so I took it out check the bulb(which of course is good). My fix is to sand the nickel off, solder some tin/flux and no more anoying false bulb-out warning (for 2-3 years now).
Or you can go to dealer and get the new socket which shouldn't be more than $15, I was either cheap or resourceful
