Default Fuse location

Hi, I lost brake lights and rear trunk release. When I looked to the two front and rear fuse panels did not see brake lights / rear trunk release location
under that name. Is think it might be a new tech name? Does anyone know the location and if it is front or rear fuse panel.

These functions are controlled by the BCM, which has some fuses in the front fuse panel, and some in the rear fuse panel.
Front Panel BCM fuses are #16, #18, #20
Rear panel BCM fuses are #7, #15, #16, #19
Rear Panel Hatch Release Motor fuses are # 31 and #26

Or, perhaps the lights and rear hatch release motor share a common chassis ground point, in the rear of the vehicle, and that is open.

Do your luggage compartment lamps work, if you manually open the hatch? If not, then you should check ground G400, which is located behind the plastic rear bumper cover, on a grounding strip which has a total of 3 ground wire lugs bolted to it. It is slightly to the right of the centerline of the car, towards the passenger side, below the passenger side tail-light.
