Jerry,
The ground wire is found just under the rear bumper. Regardless of what it
looks like, take it off and clean it! Bad grounds are the first thing to check
on these little cars. Wouldn't be a bad idea to take a Saturday morning to
pull every ground you can find just to clean them BEFORE you have problems.
And while you're cleaning stuff, check all the bull nose connectors in the
trunk. They have a tendency to turn green which while lucky for the Irish, is
not a good color for connectors.
The only fuse is in the fuse box. If you have a meter, check for 12 volts at
the light socket. And check the bulbs. Today's replacement bulbs come from
China and are built to their highest quality standards! (Meaning they are junk
and often don't function straight out of the package) I think the Chinese
bought a bunch of old designs from Lucas Electric.

Check your grounds and harness connections.
