My right tail light is not working, I am not sure when it went out, but I noticed it after replacing the interior carpet and seats. Everything else works great (brake, reverse, binkers, side and left tail (running)). Just the right tail/running light is out and I have replaced all the bulbs with new.
I have put the meter on the sockets and sure enough they are not getting power. Now here lies the problem... The right tail/running lights have a brn/wht wire running to them. I have checked every schematic I can find and it doesn't show up anywhere. The wiring harness is original and yet no manual shows a brn/wht to tail lights. Regardless, I follow the wire up to the front through the harness and continuously there is not voltage. I lose the wire when it goes into the bundled harness under the top left of dash. I pulled the switch and voltage is good across all connections. There is NO brn/wht wire, there is the brn as shown in all the schematics. Has anyone ever seen a brn/whit tail light wire? Do you know where it would be getting its power? Again, it's just the right rear running/tail light.
Thank you!!

Thank you for the quick reply. I wish that were true, it appears by all tests that they have individual power for tail/running lights. Below are pictures to help explain the situation.
