not sure what it's called but i think it's the "back up" light's of the tail lights on my eg that aren't working.. i got new bulbs for them but still they don't work.. not only the back lights, but also the reverse lights and the license plate lights are out.. and the bulbs seem fine on those.. i'm guessing it's the fuse? but the fuse seems fine also so i don't really know what the heck it is.. somebodyyyy helppppppppp...

check all your fuses again.. to me, it looks like none of your running lights are working, but the brakes lights come on.
check ALL the fuses. with a test light, and key on, engine off. every fuse under the dash should be working, or else it doenst' need to be there.

how do you wire it yourself? i had an auto to manual swap done on my car, and before it used to work, but it went out one day.

dont just look at them, they can be diceving... check it with a test light. thats the ONLY way to know if a fuse is good.

Well did anyone do anything to the radio or dash lately? There is a wire that you dont use when you hook up a after market deck for the dimmer and it usually grounds out or it doesnt make a complete circuit and will kill the tail lights.

well I did ghetto rig a stock deck/double din from an 00 accord into my hatch. But my lights work fine, when they blew out it was because of the fuse, but other got that fixed and everythings okay now. But my Reverse light still isn't working. Its wierd, one day it was working, and then I threw it into reverse and it was working pulled it out, and back into reverse again, and it stopped working.
