I am having a bit of a 'mare trying to diagnose and fix a side/tail light fault on the missus' 2013 C-Max.

The front passenger side side light and also both of the rear passenger side tail lights are not working. The drivers side is fine both ends. Brake lights and indicators are fine both ends and both sides as well.

I've replaced all three affected bulbs to no avail. The front side light was obviously blown, so I thought it may have blown the fuse when it went...

The owners manual doesn't list which fuse protects the side/tail lights. Google only yields useful results for the older Focus, and the fuse numbers don't match up.

I've been through every 5, 7.5 and 10amp fuse in all three fuse boxes as well as all of the relays and I cannot locate which fuse controls either the drivers or passengers side/tail lights.

Does anyone know? Are the side/tail lights fused normally at all, or are they controlled through a relay or the light switch or something? I'm loathed to go to a stealer to diagnose a fault like this.

Thanks in advance.
