2020 Kia Soul Brake Light Issues

2020 Kia Soul Brake Light Issues

Yellow Oval = Lights that are not working, White Circles = Working Lights

Hi! I recently installed a hitch on my Kia Soul and dragged it + a large U-Haul trailer 17-hours and 800+miles.

I made it about 700 miles before my right brake light went out. The turn-signal was still working.

When I got to my destination, I replaced all of the bulbs in the right-side brake light housing but none of the new bulbs are working. The left side works fine so I ruled out the fuse and switch, and thought some wiring may have been crimped but don't see anything.

Could there have been an issue with the wiring when they installed the electrical for the hitch?

I'm a DIY type of person so I want to learn. Any ideas?

TL;DR - Installed a hitch on my Kia Soul and now the brake lights on the right side aren't working. Replaced all 4 bulbs. Left-side brake and lights all working.
