electrical issue
I have a 2lt v6 and was changing out the trunk bulb and it made a arc inserting the bulb. now my trunk light as well as my front left turn signal, and my rear right turn signal/brake light no longer work. lights hyper flash to tell me theirs a bulb issue, but no warning on the info screen. anyone have any possible insight into this?

Fuse box is in the engine compartment. Definitely sounds like a blown fuse.

If you look at the underside of the lid there is a diagram that shows all the fuses. You shouldn't have needed to pull them all.
Glad that was all it was

It was bcm7 fuse. Am I supposed to know that's the turn signal fuse? The label has no info related to tailights.

I never unplug the battery for simple stuff such as this but that probably would have avoided this issue. 20/20 hindsight here.

Were you changing the bulb to LED, or did the bulb already fail and you were putting a new incandescent in?

it happens when the LED arcs while putting it in...if you arc, you probably will blow the fuse...
