I changed the bulbs and that didn't fix the problem and it seems to be grounded good. The horn doesn't work either and they come of the same harness. thanks for your help

Ground side issues are more common but you said the large filament ts/brake lights work fine. It can feed back thru the other filament but post what you get live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
