Re: 99 camaro reverse lights not working

It's an extremely basic circuit. Fuse, switch, load (bulbs), ground. Basic circuit, basic checks.

Sorry for the quality, Photobucket KILLS it:

Re: 99 camaro reverse lights not working

Thanks for all the help after chev house looking at bulbs me looking at bulbs filament was intact not blacking on bulbs, fufes looked good replaced all the switches i have, it turned out to be the bulbs I have never seen bulbs in 45 years with the filament intact not look blown. Oh well learned the hard way.

BTW i put bulbs in there from other light sockets on back and those didnt work guess why? I had it on ramps freaking trying to get out of the heat and i didnt do was put it in reverse to check the lights while on ramps cause i hand no rear wheel chaulks i AM STUPID BEAT ME IN THE HEAD WITH A STICK...................... I wish the car would have ran me down.
