flickering sidemarker
Hey everyone,
Over the past few months, my front driver sidemarker has been flickering occasionally. It will work fine for about a week, then it will flicker, then it will stop working altogether. This cycle has been repeating lately. I am guessing it is just a loose wire somewhere. I made sure the wiring harness was tightly attached to the sidemarker but this is not the problem. Does anyone have any ideas?

No worries. I had the EXACT same problem with mine. I believe it may be corrosion of the wires inside. I replaced all 4 of my side lights to Type S ones recently and the flickering went away. It may be that your side marker is shot. Mine was, and I have 105K on the body. You can find side marker replacements generally cheap on ebay. You will have to take apart the wheel-well to get to the light if you do go down that path. Though the back ones are a tad bit more complicated, with the bumper being removed.

Hope this helps out a little.
