A little bit of progress tonight. I swapped another switch and lamp socket over tonight and it worked. So at least I know that the lamp holder type are suitable it's just the first pop bumper which is still having problems. I de-soldered the light socket from the first one tonight and jumpered it over the a working one and it worked that way so the socket is good but still not lighting when is wired back as it should be on its pop bumper.
