Got pulled over for no taillights

I see, but the OP is having a Parking/Tail circuit fuse popping...all other lamps/circuits are fine.
The Tacoma has dual filament lamps, one for TAIL/PARKING, the other filament for STOP or TURN.

 

that makes sense, I didn’t read all of the post. That does seem to be a different issue. The car I had had a single filament that was a single tail/parking. Never the less, a variable that possibly could play into the issue, also might not,but a check off the box situation
