Tail lights do not work

I noticed my tail lights aren't working, brake lights and turn signals work... Front courtesy lights do not work either.

Got anymore history on the car? Been in an accident? Wiring harnesses messed with? You check fuses? Bulbs? Led bulbs?

What do you mean by tail lights don't work but brake lights and turn signals work? The running lights don't work?

First things to check are the fuse(s), and bulbs. From there, it could be numerous things. I needed a new multifunction switch to fix mine.......

I had the same issue along with my rear hazard lights did not work as well. As it turns out the rear lights run through your turn signal switch and your hazard switch. I replaced both and that resolved the issue, and all lights now work as they should. You can replace the hazard switch without pulling the dash and there a several Youtube videos on how to do it. Hope this helps!

I know it's an old topic, but I just wanted to say that I really love this forum... it saved me tons of hours I could spend on troubleshooting something.
I was doing some upgrades and my taillights suddenly stopped working. It was a #8 fuse. It's description is so irrational that I would never find it without a help...
Thanks guys!
