i bought a JD 328 in April. after many problems i just got it back from deere after putting a new engine in it. I finally got to get into the work lights which do not work. I thought it was the bulb so i bought a brand new bulb and lens. I turn the key on and rock the switch up and no light. i pulled the dash off and tested to see if i had power going to the switch. i had 12v. after jumping the plug (because i didn't have it hooked into the switch) i had 12v at the end of the pigtail going to the light. plugged the light in and still nothing. i checked the bulb with the meter and it checked out fine, i also ran a continuity test on the ground wire and it was fine. I get 12v to a 12v bulb and it's not lighting. is there something i'm missing????????

Check all the cionnections for any corrosion. There may be 12v there, but the high resistance from the bad connector will make it not work.
