    I have no back up lights at all. Could not find the switch on the electrical diagrams. A search did not produce any relevant results. Could one bulb being out affect all? Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

    I have noticed that if I don't put my shift knob rather forcefully into reverse, the reverse lights do not come on. If I jam it in, no problem. Rather hard to see bebind the car at 5:45 in the morning,l when backing out, so I learned how to make it work pretty quickly

    Ok, after checking all the bulbs, looking at electrical diagrams, checking the fuses and getting assistance from this forum, I could not find an issue. That's when I realized I had made a critical error. I did not verify. It was my wife (past crew chief on my race team so no neophyte) who said your back-up light aren't working.
    When I went to her and mentioned that only the inboard clusters have back-up lights she said "oh, sorry". Everything is working as it should. Thanks guys for your responses.

    Okay, my wife has done similar things, at least it didn't cost anything
