The wiring is as follows:
From the switch, the signal for the left side runs through Fuse 8.
After the fuse the signal runs to what is called N7, which is officially called the Exterior Lamp Failure Monitoring Unit.
This seperates the signal out to the individual bulbs. Here's the wires you should check, just start at the lights themselves:
On the rear, on the connector that plugs into the bulb plate, the actual "tail/parking lamp is either socket 5 or 6 (lousy scans) and is a gray wire with a black stripe.
On the left rear side marker it's socket #1, white wire with a green stripe.
On the front left parking light, remove the light assembly, and on the connector for the socket, the parking light is socket 4, gray wire with a black stripe.

If the inop ones check out to have no power, then the course of action I usually took is to identify which socket is supposed to be providing power to the affected wires, and I would jump power to the individual socket from off the battery and see if the bulb would work OK then, if it did it means the module is bad. If it doesn't you have a wiring problem.
