I've replaced the bulbs and they still won't work. Looked in manual and there isn't a specific fuse stating it's for license plate lights.

Hi,

There isn't a fuse for them. Power to the license plate lamps comes directly from the body control module. See pic 1

So, do me a favor. Using a test lamp, see if there is power to the light socket. If there is, check for continuity to ground via the black wire at the sockets.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe
