I do not have reverse (back-up) lights when I put the truck in reverse. I checked all fuses and replaced both bulbs.
Could someone help?
Thank You

Hi:
There is a switch on the transmission that may be bad. Locate the switch on the side of the transmission and determine if it's getting power with the key on. If it is, place the truck in reverse (making sure someone holds the brakes) and check for power out. If there is no power out, replace the switch.
