I was struggling with getting one of my signal lights working as well. I have a 67 200D (pictures at: http://picasaweb.google.ca/hamibob/Rolf67200D# ) I also changed the bulbs and assumed that the new bulb was making good contact. I finally discovered the bulb wasn't making a good connection where it was seated. I sanded down the contacts (it was the upper that I couldn't easily see that was the problem) and now it is working fine.
Do you have a 12 Volt test light? That is very helpful in knowing for sure that the signal is making it to the bulb. If it was working briefly, I would say that the problem is likely similar to mine. Electricity doesn't terminate at the bulb - it flows to the bulb on one side connector, through the filament, making it glow and then out the other side to ground. .....
