so there is only one connecter for each side which is the one you are talking about unless there is something that don't see, right? if i'm not mistaken i just did the check up and it's connected. whats funny now is that i'm getting 2 more messages which is say the same thing for the right side. So now its for left and right, what should i check next?

just check the plate...where the bulbs sit. Some times corrosion builds up and produces additional resistance causing a code. You can just get a pencil eraser and wipe off the corrosion.

well the brake lights and the signal lights is working fine, its just the tail lights. so if there is no connection then the brake and signal lights won't work too. right?

i'll check on that, but the problem is that the tail lights on both side is not working. It's not just the error messages and i checked the lights bulbs and it look fine on both side

If all the lamps are the correct value - Then as TemjinX2 says it is a poor connection. Try the eraser route or spray the connectors with some switch cleaner when disconnected & reconnect.
