Forgive me for asking an obvious question: have you pulled the license plate lights off and checked the wiring there? The gaskets on those plastic lamps are wimpy and the wiring gets wet alot. Eventually the connectors and wiring turn all green and crumbly in there... soldering on new connectors is helpful, and replacing the lamps is not too expensive (10-15 USD each) if the metal parts are too far gone.

I'm not sure about the connector you mentioned, but I'd guess you'll need current there in order for the lights to work...
