82 style bunper fog lights

[Subourbon]

Its an 82 suburban with 6.2 diesel 4x4 k20.

This was my big like tree, smart like rock moment.


I bought new housings for my bumper fog lamps. Install was ok, (you have to mess around with the bumper otherwise they won't sit right) But anyways, that's besides the point. One lamps was burnt out.
Ok no biggie, here it comes, I pulled and pulled on it thinking geez she's corroded in there and then ripped the bulb out. But its not one of those replaceable bulbs like the taillights.... oh no. So it's broken. ( see pics).

Here's the questions now, what can I do about this, buy a new socket/plug and wire it in? Or.... I don't believe i can fix this current one...I can really take it apart, i pulled (gently this time,) on the wires to see if they can pull out of the socket but, no joy
Any ideas or help is appreciated.
Its a 3 wore socket/plug, and dual filament bulb.

Just splice in a new one. $5 - $10. Most Autoparts stores carry them. Say ya need an 1157 twist in like your socket.

Yeah as I was posting this is, i saw napa can get some in for Monday. I guess it was a panic post. I thought it all came as one "unit" I'd never seen one before where the bulb wasn't removable or replaceable.

The old bulb base appears to still be on the pigtail. But, get a new one & splice in as @Sad Sack suggested.

Its still there but, like insaid big like tree smart like rock. There literally copper wire sticking out from the bulb. She's toast.

I'll get a new one and deploy my amazing electrical skills, cheers guys

I don't think those are Fog Lights. Aren't those the actual running/turn signal lights? And only for that '82 model year...I think.

Its a dual filament bulbs so yeah, ots two finction, and they are running lights. Bit there's numerous posts of here referring to them as fog lights. The housing i bought cake up s fog lights on amazon. So I jist went with the flow..

Bit short answer, yeah they're running/turn signal lights... in which case i don't have fog lights. Coz 1st position on light switch is marker lights taillights and "fog" lights in the bumper.
Second position is all the above and headlights. And hi n lo beam foot switch by thr pedals

Your removal method was wrong. 1157 bulbs do not just pull out like newer lamps. You push the bulb in, turn CCW and then it comes out.

That bulb socket is probably still okay. Just need to remove the rest of the old bulb.
