1997 Chevy Lumina V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

we have a 1997 chevrolet lumina and none of the back lights work. The flasher does work. We have checked the fuses and bulbs and they are fine. Why will the brake and signal lights not work?

are the dash bezel lights out too? if so it could be a corroded contact inside of the fuse box. I had this problem with my Lumina. Fuses were fine but a contact was corroded.
