    Bad contacts on the bulb, bad contacts on the wiring to the light unit.

    Try a bit of sand paper on the pins/pads the bulb make contact with, otherwise you need to get a multimeter and start tracing.

    Seeing as you have to disconnect the wiring to change the bulbs, have you checked it's all connected back up properly?
