Make sure you have power going to it. Use a multimeter and work from the light back towards the source.

Hire a certified Sailfish mechanic?* Sounds like a real stumper to me

Make sure that the ground wire is tight. I had the same problem and just about went nuts trying to fiqure out the propblem. Until i called good o' dad and he told me to check the ground wire, which was about a turn loose. i tightened it down and it worked. good luck.
