taillight issues

So I finally got my tranny fixed and now my taillights aren't working! At first it was just my running lights not working, so I checked my fuses, checked the wires for anything that might have come loose, and then replaced my bulbs. Now nothing works. Blinkers, brake lights nothing. Any ideas?

Start with the brake lights first. Check the voltage on BOTH sides of the brake light fuse (shared with hazards). Report your results. To be clear, your next post must consist of two voltage measurements, or a request for help with using a multimeter.

It was my bulb sockets. I'm glad it wasn't more serious, I really need this thing to be on the road this weekend!
