Tail Light Issues

ok this is making me go crazy...one tail light works but the passenger side does not....i tried all of the obvious, changed fuse and bulb...and nothing, still not working, i even changed the tail light assembly because it looked like the wiring was fried, so that seemed like a logical decision, but nothing, still the same...all other lights work just fine, but i don't get why one will work and one won't...any ideas???? i will try going through with a FSM tomorrow, but any help would be appreciated...thanks

Sounds like the only other possibility is the wiring. Do you have power to the plug? Trace the wires back til you find a break.

i can only assume that i have power at this point since all of the other lights work...i bet it's going to be something stupid like a loose connection or something

I meant do you have power at the plug for the lights that dont work. Trace those wires back to where they came from. The wires for both tailights prolly split near the back.
