    Get out the test light.
    Get out the MultiMeter.

    Test the wires going to the sockets for 12 Volts and Ground.

    Your tail lights need a two filiment bulb (1157) Not a single filement bulb. Someone put the wrong bulbs in there.

    If there is only one filament something is wrong. It should take an 1157 bulb.
