yes it worked before and only just recently noticed that it wasn't. the wires are all where they need to be on the tranny. but is there anywhere else i can possible check or things that i can do to trouble shoot this problem.

If I were you I'd first check that the fuse isn't burnt out. After that you should check to make sure the reverse switch on the transmission is functioning properly as long as the bulbs aren't burnt out.
