its usaully where the plug clips onto the rear lights it go's corrosive in the plug but while the clusters are out its worth taking the bulbs out and cleaning all the contacts plus take the side repeater bulbs out an check em

also make sure your brake bulbs arent blown

they can blow and short the ground line to 12v when u apply brakes (same thing happens if u fit single filament bulb)
