Default Tail lamp question - Help on Audi part # needed.

I have a burnt out bulb in my driver's side rear tail lamp. However the bulb is not the problem.

Bulb had gone out intermittently before for a day or two but always came back. Tried replacing the bulbs in the assembly, however the same problem persists. Me thinks that this is a problem with the plug in electrical harness that goes into the lamp assembly.

Anybody know what the part number is and how much it costs? I'd rather try to order the harness myself than have the Dealer fix it as I'm up for inspection next month.

Thanks.

How do you have an "extra"?

Default Have you confirmed that all the sockets work?

Send me a pic of the part and we'll talk.
