Default No tail lights

Finally have a day to ride and I have no signals or brake lights. 2016 Street Glide. All the connections seem to be fine along with the fuses.

Might be a fluke, check for burnt bulbs? Got a test light to see if current to bulb sockets?

Check the connector under the seat , then check wiring under the rear fender , if you bottomed out , the tire could have damaged some of the wiring .

Is the rear of the bike lowered?
What was the last service performed on the bike?

It is all stock and the connections under the seat are good. I will need to check under the fender soon.

Found out that both bulbs went out at the same time. Not sure the cause but replaced with LED and so far so good!

Thanks for all the help!!!
