Check the connection at the tail light's, Did you use scotch lock's? Thay are not known for brilliant connection.

[theroadrunner]

there is scoth locks on there will take it of and try that

What the heck is a scotch lock.

[theroadrunner]

A scoth lock is a little plastic thing to join two wire with a metal part in between the wire, wired the wire running from the plug directly to wire at tail light still nothing when you hook a test light there is no glow on the test light

Is your plug's wires connected behind the drivers side or passenger side rear light?

[theroadrunner]

passenger side why

[sp1086]

I'll get the wireing diagram for that side so you can check that it is connected correctly.
