back up lights

[Al Gilliland]

Hi everyone

Has anyone ever had a problem with their backup lights. All lights in the tail light assemblies work except for the backup lights (on both sides). Have an 88westy automatic. Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

Al

1. check the fuse.
2. The back-up light switch is located on the shifter along with the netural safety switch. Remove the consol (4 screws) and check that the wire hasn't fallen off. If the wires are in place, connect the 2 wires from the back-up switch together, turn the key on. If the lights come on, the switch is dirty or broken, if they don't, the wire is broken between there and the lights.
