Side markers and license plate lights out?

Just wondering if anyone know why my front side marker lamps and license plate lights might be out. I thought it might be a fuse in the engine compartment box but I couldn't find a blown one. Does anyone have any ideas of where else to look for a problem. Just happened one day and I noticed they were all out. Didn't change a thing from when they were working. I do have LED's in replacement of the old bulbs, but like I said, when I first installed them, they worked just fine and then they all just went out together. Thanks for any help.

you need load resistors / equalizers

Even if they were working fine for about the last six months? That's what I find weird. And my interior LED's work just fine. Didn't modify anything.

my interior LEDs were fine as long as i had them.
LEDs should outlast the car.

however, if the wattage is off, and theres constant on/off then the lifespan of the LEDs is jeopardized
