My tail lights went out help me!

I have a 2011 g37. So one day one of my coworkers told me my tail lights was out but I wasn’t really listening because it was a old lady but now one of my friends told me then another co worker told me about them so I listened I check online about the situation but mainly they say it’s a fuse problem Check the fuse but it didn’t looked burned or anything so I just changed it anyway to double check but it’s still not working so idk what to do please help. Also I recently just installed 2 12 kickers comp c but I don’t think that would cause my tail lights to go out either.

Did you try swapping bulbs? Did you wire the kicker yourself? Disconnect it and see if your lights come back. Let us know

I didn’t change the bulbs out Bc the brake lights still work and no I didn’t do it myself I took it to professionals to install it for me but they turned off way before I even got them installed

I fixed it

Okay so I found the problem my red and black wires was touching each other on my license plate. Basically if they touch they instantly blow ur tail light fuse well that’s what it did for me anyway.
