Had that happen once and it was a loose wire connecting the light itself. My taillight was out but one of the headlights had a loose wire

I had this happen aswell, so I followed the wires back from the lights and it turns out between the trailer adapter and the lights the wire shield corroded and rubbed against metal until the wires hit the frame and grounded out, check all that. If not, I also noticed that the adapter breaks very easily, and that some pins that connect the wires together were broken, otherwise you could always take it out to eliminate the problem, by connecting the female and male adapter connections together.
