Another common issue with those tailights is corrosion within the tail light circuit/backing board. Water draining along the sides of the trunk can find it's way past the seam gasket between the tail light and chassis. It runs down and through the curcuit board and all those connections inside rust away. I had the problem you described and solved it by taking the light assemblies apart and cleaning the contact areas. Then I fixed the leak problem using a silicone sealant.
