2010 tail light issues

Hello,
I have a 2010 F150 screw. I went through the car wash the other day and the rear turn signal's and brake lights stopped working. By the time I got home they were working again. Now when it rains or I hit a large bump in the road they stop working. My question is could this be caused by a loose connection where the tail lights plug into the harness? If so does anyone know where they plug in at?

Thanks in advance, Chester

Open the tailgate and you will see a couple of screws that are holding the lights in place. Take them out and tug on the light housing to remove it. You can twist the bulb socket about a quarter turn to release it from the housing. Pull the bulbs in and out of the sockets a few times to see if it might have a bit of oxidation on the contacts.

Otherwise since all stopped working at once it is going to be further up in the harness.
