Default question about front turn indicator

I keep getting indicator failed light n. When I inspected further it seems the connector is melting the plastic on the bulb connector pins. Any idea how to fix this or where to find a replacement harness?

Usually caused by fitting too high a watt lamp or fitting the right one badly.

A wrecker will have parts.

I don't think it is a fitting or bulb issue but a crappy original holder.
Cleaning it up keeps it going for a while, some people have used aluminium foil for repairs, a search will provide info.
