Have you even checked for bulbs not working?

Was and still is super wet where I am, puddles are to be avoided in anything. Check light with a pole or helper it's hard to know brake lights are right without them on. Lenses have tiny holes to allow heated air in or out puddle spray can flood them so go look,

(edit in) If trailer plug in is dangling or OE should be covered? If not dry it out dirty wet water can make connections - lousy ones hence a maybe thinks trailer wire/plug is there?)
