Driver side taillight will not work

Hello my name is Dave.

It sounds like the most likely issue is the bulb socket, the plastic piece that the bulb plugs into.This is a problem I have encountered with your model of car quite a few times. The repair is fairly straight forward, you will have to buy a socket specifically made for your car. once you have the socket the wires will be the same color as the one you have now. Cut each wire, strip it and use a butt connector to connect the new socket.

I found the tutorial on YouTube on doing the butt connectors and shrink wrapping them:
