are the contacts that touch the bulb pushed/mashed in where they won't contact the bulb? you can still poke them with a probe, but they may not be touching the bulb

How many new bulbs have you tried? Swap the known good one from the other side in put it in there.

Is the socket getting a good ground? You can try running a jumper cable to the socket from a good ground to see if thats your problem.
