HELP!!! My back up lights wont work...
I replaced the lights (1156), and still nothing. I checked my fuse, seems to be fine. My tail lights work perfectly fine, my back up lights just dont come on! I checked the wiring and the harness up to the bulb too! Someone help me please !!!

check the ground.
put your car in reverse, put the key into the ignition to the run position, but don't start the car, using a test light see if you have power to your backup lights.
if you do, then you have a problem somewhere on the ground side of things.
also, check the reverse switch, not sure if it is on the tranny, or on the shift lever...
edit: btw, it may not be against the law to not have reverse lights, I know it isn't against the law in texas.
you may not have to do anything, unless you just really want them..

Well I just had my ITR clutch installed yesterday at my local dealership. If there is a reverse switch on the tranny, maybe something happened??? Anyone have any idea as to where I can find this reverse switch???

if you are sure your reverse lights were working before you took it in, take it back and tell them what happened, if it is something that they forgot to hook back up, then they cannot charge you for it.
