The first thing to check if you have zero lights is your fuses. Your owners manual will give you locations to check. After that, I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to individually test the pins on your trailer connection for function when the trailer is not connected.
We can do further troubleshooting once you've taken these two steps if the problem is not remedied.
