Your ground wires in the rear of your truck under the bed for corrosion or split wires.

If it's all of your lights, I'd suspect a fuse as well, or I suppose the 12V line that runs to and from the fuse before splitting off to each light.

A problem with a ground would more likely show up as a failure for a single light.

I had a bad ground for my lights in the back of my truck and it affected all my lights and we spent next to a month searching the source because the mechanic thought as you do. Electrical problems can be tricky to figure out and many in vehicles are due to grounds that are bad.

What year and make/ model of truck are you talking about for starters? Sounds like two different problems. Your turn signal and brake lights are somewhat related, but back up lights are a separate circuit.
