My rear nightlight(the tail lights) don't turn on, also when I hit the remote to lock the doors, the lights no longer blink
My rear brake is working. I can not drive in night time because of this problem. I checked all the fuses and changed all the bobs, still not working. Please help me. Also inside of my car gages light is working and side panel( drivers right) not light as well. Front nightlight are okay. What could be the problem?
Thank you in advance.

    1. At the under-dash fuse relay box, check to see if there is battery voltage coming in on terminal 7 Red/Black wire when the taillights are turned to the on position.

    2. At the under-dash fuse/relay box, check to see if there is voltage coming out of the box on terminal 11 Red/Black wire.
