The bulbs are very easy to get to...and although very unlikely, its possible that they both died at the same time. Thats the first thing to check since it is easy. Then if its not that, it must be the switch that engages the lights when you put it in reverse.
Also, I don't get any message on the DIC when putting it in reverse...what does it say?

Um... where's the friggen switch? My son pointed out that my backup lights didn't light when I was in reverse. I checked it in the garage and it worked, later, they failed again. Sounds like the switch needs adjustment or a replacement. Where am I digging for this thing? Tranny? Shifter/console?
Yes it's an old thread but at least I used search!

Damn I've had my 06' for about 8 weeks now and just noticed my Reverse lights are not lighting up on reverse. Fuse is OK as well as bulbs. Is the switch easy to get to once the car is lifted? on tranny side? top?
