Like the title says My tail light and blinkers have stop working.

Heres what happened by bike got dumped over and one of the transparent gray covers was broke. All blinkers and lights still worked after it got knocked over. Went for a ride and the blinkers stop working. A day later the tail light went out.

I checked the bulb that has the broken cover and it has low resistance across it so I think its good. Turn to blinker switch to on and didn't see any power at the bulb. Checked the fuse marked "lights" and its not blown.

What would be the next step?
 
Did some more searching found this link

Check and replaced the ACC fuse which then promptly blew. Little more investigation revealed the wires going to the rear blinker jiggled loose and were touching. Looks like fate just wanted to mess with me the blinkers that caused the problem weren't affected by the bike being knocked over.
