1990 Ranger No Brake Lights, No Rear Flashers, No Rear Running Lights.

[Brieve]

Hello I am new here and I hope to tap into the collective knowledge contained here. I have searched this forum for an answer to my problem yet I am unable to find someone with the same problem. Tonight I was going out to eat when I motorcyclist caught me at a red light and let me know what I have no rear lights. So here is the problem:

Not Working
Brake lights (Including the Third brake light on the cab)
Rear Running Lights
Rear Turn signals (Including hazards)

Working
Head lights (hi and low)
Front Turn signals (Including hazards)
Front Running lights
Reverse Light works fine.

I have checked all fuses with no problems. The bulbs are good. I am confused and at my wits end. This is my only transport and I am really fond of my old truck. Any help would be welcome.

Bet there is a wire bundle with a plug thats not making. Not fuse, because too many circuits arent working that arent related.
Plug, or wire bundle is cut somehow.
Be sure to post when ya figure it out!

Look for the tail light harness connector.

It is located at the back center of the bed, just behind the bumper.
Make sure it is fully connected.

It is a good practice to scrub connector contacts by mating/unmating it several times to get a cleaner contact. Dielectric grease is helpful to keep water from intruding into the connection.

trace your wires back from the lights. Keep going till you find a connector and clean it up then se if they work. If you keep going till you find it

Well looks like every bulb that was on at the time is completely blown. I will get some pics up here soon for a show an tell. Any idea on that one?
