One tail light went out, few months later the other went out.
Finally got around to replace both bulbs ( W5W with 2875 ).

Still no lights working. Checked all fuses, none blown.

Please help

Have you checked to see if your missing the power side or the ground side?

When I can answer that, I will have problem fixed.
The two separate bulb harnesses are wrapped nicely in looms.
Where is their power and ground source? Then I will be able to resolve the issue.
Do you have access to a schematic? That will allow me to trace down to the point of your reply.
Thank you for the reply.

You can check for power and earth at the globe socket, start there.
