    No reverse lights, why?

    I replaced the bulbs, but I still don't have any reverse lights. The fuse looks good, any suggestions? Is there a switch anywhere I need to check? Also I have no license plate lights. All my other lights seem to work fine except those ones. What should I check for and where?

    Thanks in advance for any and all info.

    um... for the reverse light, check the box that attaches to trunk. it has three screws to it.

    There maybe a wire cut from the harness around the trunk bracket.

    For the reverse lights, there could just be a loose wire somewhere. It happened to me and it turned out that my wires were loose there the tranny is at.

    What heppened to 89LXiCoupe also happened to me except the wire wasn't even in the harness anymore! It was just the harness hooked onto the tranny.
