Have you gone through the fuse panel? Check fuses and make sure they are seated tightly. Your owner's manual will give you a fuse layout diagram. You can also check the body control module, or BCM, make sure harness connectors are seated securely. There's usually an instrument cluster module as well, but I don't think that would affect tail lights. You should also go through wire harness and look for loose or missing grounds, especially in area of interior fuse box. Disturbed grounds are probably one of the biggest reasons for faulty electronics in cars.
