Check the grounding. That can be a very easy fix.

It could be related to the trunk wiring recall that affects the lights.

ahh also if it did relate to the recall would i still be able to get it from an acura dealer free of charge? since its an 04 n i just bought it so theres no acura warranty on it.

and what would i look for? only the d/s rear light doesnt work everything else is fine, if it was cause of the recall wouldnt it effect more then just one light?
