The bulb has a connection direction. If in doubt, you have the other bulbs that you can use as a model.

These are the same bulbs as the position lights, type W5W.

If you want, you can temporarily plug in the board and test that everything works.

You can also take advantage of this to clean the fire but avoid touching the plate.

present the plate on the fire and press to lock

replace the seal if necessary

reconnect the light, the plug has a key so there is no risk of error (you just have to press, you should hear a "click" when the plug is properly engaged)

put the fire back in place
