Problems with lights are frequently caused by bad earths. Check your earth lines...especially one that should bond the block to the chassis.

No guarantee...but worth a look.

Had the same problem, unclip the metal plate that holds all the bulbs in
clean all contacts where bulbs sit and smear bit vasaline on contacts
