license plate light, pilot light, and clock light all not working

i took it to infiniti and they tried to charge me $200 just to do a diagnostics test im hoping someone on this forum might've had the same problem as i currently do and can help remedy the situation?

Go check out the FSM, grab your multimeter and spend the hours troubleshooting yourself.

I don't know anyone that works for free.
As others have mentioned did you check for a blown fuse?

Possibly fuse #53 in the IPDM?

I find it amazing the OP fails to mention the year/model of his vehicle, whether any recent work was done on that vehicle, and with almost over one million vehicles involved in flooding over the past few years no mention of whether this is a vehicle that was ever involved in a flood.
Even if it is a blown 10 amp fuse, just replacing it and have it blow again because of a short in the wiring harness is going to require quite a bit of troubleshooting time as well as a possible replacement of the BCM?
If the OP does not possess the necessary troubleshooting skills, the ability to read electrical schematics, follow the FSM, and possess the necessary tools then spending the $200 the dealer is quoting may be his best option in my opinion.
