Welcome to the forum!
A few details and pictures would be helpful and allow the members to better respond to your question.
For example, what model coach? A clear picture of the light and its edges and mounting surface, also if accessible a picture from behind the wall that it is mounted to.
Generally speaking, the lens usually snap on/off and expose the mounting screws. Sometimes depending on the light style, the lamp could be sealed and use mounting screws from behind it to hold it in place. Another option that can be used it a press fit into a rubber grommet
Details would help members better support your question.
We are ready and willing to help!!!!

Yes, what Bryan said. For example this is the right rear for my rig. If yours is like this it'd be very obvious how to remove. Philip could help you. 😜
I might add that the wires are accessible (on my rig) from underneath so if you have an icepick tester...

Check whether the light is a snap-off lens with screws behind it, a sealed light screwed in from the front, or a grommet-fit light that pulls out of rubber. Look underneath behind that corner and see if you can access the light wiring from below like Bryan said
Hook up your truck and turn the and use a test light or meter at the rear lamp wiring to confirm power on the tail/running circuit, also confirm ground is good. If power and ground are present at the lamp, the light itself is likely bad. If there is no power, look for a loose connector, damaged splice, or pinched wire, corrosion, etc. near that rear corner. The systems are really simple.
If it’s the light itself that is bad, I believe Alliance uses D-lights which is the same as Dream Lights. https://dreamlightingled.com/

If you remove the sealant around the outside edge, do you happen to see any notch that would allow you to insert a flat screwdriver and snap the lens off of its base? Obviously proceed with caution to prevent damage.
Also like others have said, if you can test the wiring you might be able to avoid removing the lens.
