Reverse lights

[AlanHod]

Noticed last night that neither of my reverse lights were working. Any ideas what this could be? I have had a look at both bulbs (only through the light cluster though) and they both look fine with no breaks in the filaments.

Any ideas?

I would give the connectors a check as the tend to corrode, if thats not the problem then the above may be.

How easy is this to replace?

Chrisjk, thought it might be that, but strange for it to happen to both lights.

I believe that one cluster gets the feed from the other, so if the main cluster connector is bad the other won't work .

Ah, wired in series then. I'll definately give the connectors a check after work tomorrow. Cheers.

Just had a thought, would be the same switch that flicks the rear wiper on when reversing, ifs not the switch thats buggered.
