That could be the problem as that will cause a bad connection. Clean off all the rust, I used sandpaper and some CLR. If it is not corrosion, test all connections with a volt meter. My relay shorted out two weeks ago but it was an easy fix, $4 relay from autozone. If all else fails, check the wiring too, bulb connections, etc. Best to pull it all out and tidy EVERYTHING up
