It started a few months ago the right tail light was very dim but was still working and the left side was fine. Now the right side none of the lights are working and the left side only light that comes on is when the headlights are on. I'm not sure where to start we have looked at the fuses but don't think any of them are burned out. Any clue?

Hi, did you use a testlite on the applicable fuses? One end of testlite grounds to vehicle chassis, metal part. The pointed end of testlite touch to bare spot over each fuse leg, shouldn't need to remove fuse. If the testlite comes on at each fuse bare spot, the fuse is good and the circuit has voltage. A couple of the fuse circuits are hot all the time. One goes hot when you turn on the key, to test that one, the key has to be on.

Does the high-mount brake lite work and the lower ones don't?
