Default 94 Back Up Lights Not Working

Long story short. Been away from Vettes for awhile, but recently bought a 94 with 40,000 miles, 6 speed, well equipped and in outstanding condition. Here is the problem, I can not get the back up lights to work. Replaced the fuse (owners manual says 10, fuse panel says 15), and nothing. Replaced both bulbs and again nothing. Any thoughts? All other lights and accessories work fine. Suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks

Your back-up light switch on the transmission is bad.

Disconnect the connector at the transmission switch and jumper the two pins - the BU lights should come on with the ignition on. If they light, the switch is bad - common problem.
