Default aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!

ok, i really hope someone can help out here. I have a 98 spdr and the tail lights have either gotten really really dim or gone out completely. It started out as just the turn signal not working on the LR taillight. I couldnt find the bulb socket anywhere so i tried to drop a piece of copper in the socket to help make the connection and now non of my taillights work? Any ideas, please help.

fuses... relays... flashers... check them all. can you hear the flasher clicking. if so, how fast. the turn signals go faster if a bulb or connection or wire is bad. as for the tail lights... tracing is a slow and taxing process. Best of luck

yea, i could hear it when i started, but now i dont, so im sure i probly blew the flasher, witch i was expecting to do, so thats not a surprise, but its not the bulbs or fuse, im almost positive it is the socket, and its not hard to replace, but i cant seem to find one anywhere, any ideas?

problem in the socket or in the wires? my drivers side blinker started flashing faster and we found out there was a problem in the wire just before the socket.
