There is no fuse or relay just for the reverse light's. But they will be wired through a fuse which controls something else ! (Is everything else electrical working). I do not have a wiring diagram for this vehicle. Your local library or autoparts store will be able to supply a repair manual with wiring diagrams etc. You also need to check the wirirng.
