Have you checked the fuse? Do you have a live feed to the switch? Do you a multimeter you can use to check the continuity of the switch? Once you know you have a voltage coming out it’s just a matter of fault finding it through to the lights. It can be quite tedious to fault find but it’s fairly straightforward.

Thanks for the quick response i have just bought a volt meter to test it, where's the best place to start, at the switch or the bulbs ?
