Rear Lights failure Electrical help

Hello,

Here is my next challenge to sort out, the lights. I know all the light on this car have worked when I first bought the car. Now the following rear lights will not go on. License plate lights/markers (both sides #9) and right tail light (#12) cops keep pulling me over on this one (they finally got me protect and serve, what a joke)
Also my instrument cluster lights, Shifting lights, and climate control lights do not work

I took the connector apart under the drivers side and measured the wires in power and ohms I also wire brushed all of the connectors where I took my readings from.

The female connector (going to light switch/fuse box) (light switch turn 2 clicks to the right)
Volt DC (200)/200ohms/2000ohms
1 12
3 12
5 .01/40.5/48
7 0/40.7/74
9 0/26.7/72
4 5.9-6.03
6 0
8 1.97
10 12
12 0/27/48
14 0/0/545

Female connector all power switches off
200ohms/2000ohms
1
3 7.4/7
5 1.4/1
7 1.3/1
9 3.8/3
4 55.3/55
6 (nothing registered) (reverse was not engaged)
8 0/642
10 3.8/3
12 3.7/3
14 0/542

Male Connector (going to lights)
200ohms/2000ohms
1 (nothing registered)
3 (nothing registered)
5 9.3/4
7 9.1/4
9 8.7/4
4 45.5/39
6 7.8/2
8 7.5/2
10 8.4/3
12 (nothing registered)
14 9.4/2

Colors of the wires
1 Assuming some sort of power wire
3 no sign of blue wire in trunk area
5 Left Turn Signal
7 Right Turn Signal
9 Side Markers, License plate light
4 no sign of blue/black wire in trunk area
6 Reverse/back up Lights
8 Brake Lights
10 Left Driving light
12 Right Driving Light
14 Ground I assume


If anyone could lend some assistance on this one It would be much appreciated.
