Somehow, you have a bad ground at the housing and/or the socket

You need metal to metal contract for a ground so be sure there is no paint or any other foreign substance between the socket and bare metal. Including the housing and fender.

Thanks, I'll make sure it's touching cleanly and see what happens

I just took a jumper wire and grounded the socket to a bolt in the truck and it lit right up.
Next, The heater blower motor doesn't come on either. I will check the grounds on that also
thanks again, wouldn't be able to do this without you guys
