Other thoughts. What is the ground path? Is there some point where a ground wire is attached to the fork, or does the ground path go through a series of bolted connections?
If it's a series of bolted connections, are all the places where that is done made from stainless and are they currently corrosion free?

When the light did not work, I took the weel out of the frame; held voltmeter contacts to the SL (Contactless) surfaces (positive and negative) then spun the wheel
