Check the reverse light switch on the transmission. To test it, just disconnect the wire connector from the switch, jump across the terminals with a wire or paperclip... If the lights come on, the bulbs and wiring are ok. That points to the switch. Might not be bad though..... Unscrew it from the transmission and try moving the little ball in and out.... it has a spring behind it... Clean it up...spray it with WD-40 or similar... That might loosen it up to where it works properly again.

Im on board, but I also like fixing stuff... I figure if I can make something work again and put a few bux in my pocket, then heck, why not? Ive done that process I mentioned on a couple of my C4's and it worked happily ever after.... so why not try it for free?
