Hi,

Each of the lights affected has its own power supply, so it's unlikely a fuse problem. However, they all share a common ground. I suspect that is where the problem is.

Take a look at the attached pic. I highlighted each light's ground which are all at the same place, lower left of the radiator support. The wires will all be black. It isn't uncommon for the connector to corrode and break or lose contact, so check there first.

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.
