Default 06 GS driver tail light not working

hey all, I've got a 06 GS and my drivers side tailight isn't working. Is there a fuse somewhere to check? I know it's LED, so is it weird that that whole thing went out, vs just a led or something. Any help would be appreciated

There's 4 fuse locations (as far as I know).

One's on the left side of the trunk, there's a lid, pop it and you'll see the fuse box.

One's on the driver's side underneath.

One's on the passenger's side underneath.

One's under the hood.

FWIW, there is a fuse somewhere to check, there's fuses for everything for our cars.

GL!

Damn well looks like the fuse is for the whole rear tailight section, not per side.. n its only the outside one I'm noticing, one in the rear fender, not trunk pan. Brake light works great but for some reason parking lights no go.

Ideas?

Only idea I can think is to disconnect the non-working side, and testing each lead with a multimeter. If there's a 12v reading then it's your lamp's circuitry gone bad.
