Tail light or front marker light. Turn knob to park light position and look closely.

You may find that the bulb is actually shot. Touching a bulb with a broken filament can move the filament ends close together and they will arc and temporarily fuse but will soon fail again. The reason a lamp quits and you turn it off and on and it works and to days later it goes again never to recover. If bulbs fail then get two pair and do them all or you will be back again and again as they are all the same age.
