Possibly a bad connection on your truck's connector? A bad ground would keep all of the lights from working.

Trailer light circuits have their own fuses in the underhood fuse panel, (5 of them). To test the fuses, the ignition must be in the RUN position, headlamp switch in the ON position, and the 4 way hazard switch in the ON position. With a test light or DVOM, test both terminals on the top of each fuse:

The trailer park/tail fuse should show constant battery voltage. Left turn signal and left stop lamp use the same fuse. It should show voltage alternating from zero to battery voltage. Right turn signal and right stop lamp use the same fuse. It should show voltage alternating from zero to battery voltage. The CHMSL, (chassis high mount stop lamp) has its own fuse and should show battery voltage only when the brake pedal is applied. The trailer brake should show battery voltage only when the brake pedal is applied.
