TAIL,REAR,LICENCE LIGHTS NOT WORKING

hey guys,
I have a yaris 2007 and this is the problem:
No Tail, Rear and Licence light
I don't know when this happend (I've been aware when another driver told me when driving at night).
Checked the Fuse TAIL 7.5A PANEL 2 and replaced it but nothing changed.
Note that
-I am getting the warning tone when the switch lights are on and the door is open
-Dash lights OK
Can you please direct me on where the problem is
thanks

Check the PANEL1 fuse as well. On your car there are three fuses total involved: TAIL, PANEL1, and PANEL2

Does your car have daytime running lights?

Does it have daytime running lights (where the headlights are on even with the switch off)? The reason I ask that is that the next thing I will have you check will be different if it does.

OK. There is one more fuse to check: TAIL NO. 2

After that, you can try bypassing the headlight switch by jumping the sky blue wire in pin 18 to the white wire with a black stripe in pin 12 on the headlight switch connector. The white/black wire is second from the left on the bottom row and the sky blue wire is 3 pins from the right in that same row. You can use a small piece of wire or a paper clip to jump them. If the lights come on when you do, then the problem is the switch.

The fuses are in the image below. The headlight switch is the stalk that you use to turn them on and to signal. The connector for it is at the base of it, under the steering column cover. There are two screws behind the center of the steering wheel (turn it a bit to expose them) and one by the tilt lever for the steering column. Once those screws are out you can remove the lower steering column cover to get to the connector.

Correction on the bypassing - I was helping someone from France with a 3rd generation Yaris and got confused with your issue. With you second generation the bypass would be to jump the green wire in pin 10 to the white wire in pin 13.

Also, in that case the fuses involved are just TAIL and PANEL2.

I didn't check any of the light bulb yet because I wouldn't think 5 buld will go off at the same time
Any other alternative

Do you have a multimeter to be able to take some voltage measurements?
