If only one side is out, it's not a fuse. Check your bulbs. If bulbs are good, take a test light and see if sockets are getting 12 volts. If not, start following wires. Look for cuts, splits, the usual. I would redo the grounds also. Bulbs and other accessories can be found on alibaba for smallest prices: http://alibaba-homepage.com/
I hope I have helped

The fuse labeled REAR PARK LP 15A in the right instrument panel fuse box powers the rear park lamps, and the tag lamps. If your rear park lamps are working then you most likely need to replace the tag lamps (bulbs). Use the following procedure to replace the lamps.

To Remove:

  1. Remove the two mounting screws from the license plate lamp.
  2. Remove the license plate lamp from the rear bumper fascia.
  3. Remove the license plate lamp socket by turning it counterclockwise.
To Install:
  1. Install the license plate lamp socket by turning it clockwise.
  2. Position the license plate lamp to the rear bumper fascia.
  3. Install the license plate lamp mounting screws.

SOURCE: tag light not working

If your taillights work than the fuse is good. Check the bulbs. If bulbs are good than check sockets to see if there is corrosion.

2005 gmc sonoma. Tag light isnt working . I was going to check the fuse but cant find tag light listed on fuse diagram. What else would they call it so i can locate what fuse its on. And if its not fuse...

You can check the fuse, but the problem usually is the bulb or the socket contacts where the bulb plugs into.
Tag lights (license plate lights) are exposed to a lot of weather/road exposure and bumps/vibration, which shorten their life.

Rarely is a "tag light fuse" listed. The tag light is typically on a circuit with several other lights or accessories, and most commonly on the taillight circuit fuse, but not always.
Only a wiring diagram or a manual will be able to verify which circuit/fuse it is on, so you may have to check several fuses.

IF it turns out to be a blown fuse, your first step should then be to trace and identify the source of the electrical short (usually in wires by the tag light itself). Simply replacing a fuse is NOT a cure or a good 'repair'.

(As I write this, I have 2 tag lights out on my vehicle,, one which I verified is a blown bulb, and the other due to a badly corroded bulb socket)
Please rate via the helpful button if this helped answer your question, and please post back (via comments) when you discover the actual source of the problem.

GMC Sonoma Tag lights and dash light not working.

Maybe you didn't reconnect the ground for those lights. Check for tail light fuse or IP lights fuse. You may have to get a test light or voltmeter, and start looking for where power is lost. Start at the rear light sockets, and work back to the front, to the park light switch.

I have a 2000 chevy 2500 and the tail lights, tag lights and brake lights have stopped working, I checked the bulbs and they are good, fuses are good. Have not replaced the brake relay under the hood. Do I...

check for power at the wires going intop the tail lights, real common that the circuit board is bad, but unlikely both at the same time. The tag, tail lights and brakes are 2 different systems. Do the turn signals work normally? if so the wiring from the turn signal switch to the brake lights is GOOD. the stop light switch had\s a ORANGE wire that should have 12V if not ck STOP LPS fuse, when brake pedal is depressed, the WHITE wire is 12V (at the stop light switch) if that is OK, the turn signal switch COULD be bad. The wiring harness plug is near the back left under the tailgate, see if that is disconnected?

Tag light out. Replaced both bulbs.. still not working. Checked the fuse box but there isn't a specific fuse for the tag light. What next?

the license lights work off of the tail light fuse.check the sockets for power using a test light(make sure you have a good ground).if no power then check were the wires are under the truck behind the bumper and move back down the wire 4" or so until you get power on the license light wire.there is a plug connector for the license lights at the back that may have a poor or damaged connections.

91 camry tail lights stop working

Check with a test light to see if you have power at the tail light socket. If you don't, check the fuse. If the fuse is burnt, that's your problem. If it's not, check for power in the wires. Keep testing from back to front unil you find power. If one is broken or shorting out, the most likely place to find it is under the car, near the back where gravel stones can damage them.

No tail lights, tag light, dash board lights in 97 Nissan Maxima

If you don't have a manual, just get a test light, and ground it to your door hinge. At the back of every fuse, you will see part of the metal filament showing through. Touch your test light to each side of the fuse. You should have power to both sides of every fuse (when your key is on). If no voltage on one side, the fuse is burnt.
