Default ford escort 55 van help needed please

Hi all have just bought a t reg 55 van mot failure. Am trying to get all the work done but am having a problem with the rear fog light not working. Checked all the fuses and they are all ok. Replaced the switch and this worked when fitted but when tested again today has stopped working again. Dont know what else to try. Thanks in advance

Where it hasn't been used for so long may have now blown the bulb? Check for power at the bulb holder too

did you test with engine running and lights on and also could be a faulty stalk as these are prone to cause lighting issues
