Default no rear lights

hi folks. Bike is a 2013 ultra classic. Have rear light issue. No lights on tour pack. brake light or light bar. Brake Light works when applied. Signals work. Fuse maybe? Noticed on way to work this morning. Gonna take a look tonight after work. Only thing recently done is fuel moto led bulbs but that was last fall. Everything else seems fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Fuses
Wire connectors
Wiring condition

The usual stuff...

I am experiencing the same thing. I checked my wires under the seat and it looks like I am only getting about 1/2 volt on the orange wire (running lights) coming from the harness that runs to the caddy behind the fuse blocks. Mine is a 2008 Ultra.

I would think if it's a fuse nothing would work back there

had a toasted light fuse. put new one in and ok. for now. wondering what cooked it. i checked a bunch of wires. dont see and shorts anywhere. only thing i haven't checked is wiring under the rear fender from bottoming out now and then. i here if tire rubs it the wiring can short out

Fuses quite often blow for no reason. If you don't see a reason for it to have blown, party on...

That's the plan although I am going to stock up on a couple spare 15 amp fuses.
