Check if the license lamp works. If not, check the 15 amp fuse # 6 in the junction block under the dash.

Do you have the trailer wiring adapter harness installed? Most trailers have the normal brake / signal function combined in a single filament, but they are on separate circuits / separate bulbs on your van. You must have that adapter harness installed to combine the functions for your trailer without combining them in the van.

The fuse bus is under the hood and i have checked all fuses and swapped the relays, i moved the left rear lens to the right side and it works fine. It looks like the running lights should be on 1 curicut? i wonder if there is an inline fuse link?

The fuse is in the Junction Box under the dash, not the Power Distribution Center under the hood. It's in front of the brake pedal.
