So I have a bit of a problem. The back right tail light/brake light on my Volvo keeps going out. IT was intermittent up until a few months ago but now I can’t seem to get the light to come on at all.  
  
  
  
 I have replaced,  
  
  
  
 # All rear light bulbs (including 3rd brake and lic. plate)  
  
 # Bulb failure warning sensor (New)  
  
 # Tail Light Circuit Boards (both sides - New)  
  
  
  
 Suggestions?
