Cut'em all out and solder a new socket on from the JY?
Or, sometimes bulb sockets allow you to "push" the wire/connector up into the socket, that way you can replace the end for scenarios like yours

Yes you’ll need to replace the socket. Corrosion monster has gotten hold of the terminal.

Check the dealership, you may be able to get a new one still.
