Are the taillights working? The taillights and the front lights are on the same fuse, actually 2 fuses.

The first fuse is under the hood, alongside the battery. It is in the one corner of the fuses and the cover has the word "TAIL" over it. The second fuse is in the passenger cabin, in the panel between the door and the steering column above the hood release handle. This is fuse # 5, The left column, 5th fuse from the bottom.

If the rear taillights work and the front lights do not, you have a wiring problem.
