Alright, the bulb looks fine. Nothing broken inside. Could it be a fuse? If so, how do I find out & replace the fuse?

Or what are some other things that could be wrong with it?

Since your car is a 6th gen, check all fuse box. There is one on each side near the front doors and there is 1 under the hood.

Is your bulb actually good? I would cross reference with your reverse light.

Will do. Only one thing..I have no clue what to check for when it comes to fuses and whatnot. What does a "blown fuse" look like? And are they hard to replace?

I'll try switching out the reverse lights..im assuming they take the same bulb?
