Default Turn singnal/backup lights no longer working

2001 Jeep Cherokee limited addition.

A while back I connected a rear camera to the back up wire and grounded the ground wire to the frame. I used a gang plug so that I could remove the camera and use it on the travel trailer. Yesterday I decided to see if all was fine and reconected the camera to the gang plug in the Jeep. There was no picture on the reciever. I did something wrong in testing the connection. Bottom line: I now have no turn singles or backup lights.
Checked all interior/exterior fuses: ok
Checked backup wire that I connected to using a light tested towards the panel, no indication of power.(I thought maybe I may have damaged the wire.)
Checked the light bulbsk
The op manual lists no seperate fuse for the turn singnals/backup light.
The four way flasher works as do the brake and parking lights along with head light switch.

I find it hard to believe that the turn singnal and backup lights are on the same circuit, but that seems to be the case.

Can anyone assist me out of this delema.

My newest gc has the right rear blinker not working and also the reverse is out on that side also. I have not tracked it down yet but I think it has something to do with the trailer hookup. Does yours have the tow package on it? My fuses are good and my flashers work too-

It was a fuse that I had missed on the initial checking..
