Rear running lights not working 2007 yaris

All of my rear running lights stopped working.

About 2 months ago I had u-haul add a hitch and wiring for lights.

I have not even been back there to see when they stopped this whole time but I noticed last night that all lights work other than the red running lights that should be on at night.

U-haul says its not there problem because it has been to long.

Which wires should I look at, I checked all fuses in the fuse box and there were no dead ones.

I really think it has to do with the shitty wiriing job by uhaul.

They are driven by the 10A TAIL fuse in the under dash fuse panel. If that fuse is good, then it's time to dig into what they did.

It's literally under the bottom of the dash - Put your head on the floor mat at look up.

it was a 7.5a and it tested good.

found it, never new that panel was there either!

It was blown, replaced and all is good.

I still think uhaul did a horrid job but I can clean it up now that everything works!

Sure is nice to have a hitch and wiring on a yaris, lol!
