My back up lights and license plate lights and tail lights that are located on the trunk lid wont work while the car is on, however they do light when I unlock the car , so the bulbs are good. I've checked the fuses unless I'm over looking one

Thank You for you input , however after digging into it deeper a cut wire was located.

Thanks Again!
