i used to take apart and clean the tail light boards in my gtv6 every year
at inspection time, only to have one or more lights fail a month or two
later.  a really good cleaning and detailing, followed by some good contact
cleaner and conditioner (not stabilant 22, but that's what i'd recommend
now), has resulted in lights that have not failed in more than three years.
in fact, i just pulled it out after sitting for more than a year and a half
in storage, and all of the lights work!

hope this helps,
