I can't count the times that I've had to tweak/bend the wires on new bulbs so they would make contact when you put them in the socket. And just because a socket sticks in and twists tight doesn't mean the brass socket contacts are tight against the flatwire in the printed circuit.

Wouldn't worry about that for now. The wire to it and the e-brake switch wire are spliced together at the bulkhead connector. So got to get the e-brake straightened out and the other will work when you hook it up right.

Somewhere someplace something isn't making contact like it should. Bulb fit in the socket, socket to printed circuit contact, Poor terminal contact between connector/plug-in and printed circuit...And could be a break, tear or defect on one of the flatwires in the printed circuit.
Other than access these are about as simple as it gets when it comes to diagnose and repair.
Just gonna have to dig in and get er done
