    I had the same issue/symptoms as well when I bought my house. The socket, however, was "potted" in black rubber. It could not be replaced, so I too replaced the entire bulb housing.

    Just thinking out loud here....
    Weak transformer? At idle (no load) gives you 12V. When you put a load on it (bulb), transformer cannot supply the load voltage and goes to 0 or low volts. Is there a way to rig your volt meter and the bulb at the same time? Or maybe try a smaller load, 5 watt bulb?
