Decided to replace the reverse lamp switch and it solved the problem. Now my reverse lights are working again. It was hecka hard trying to get to it. It was in an awkward spot where you can't get it out with a wrench or a deep socket. But I got around it and got it replaced. smile.gif

Question for "ILoveMySilly97": What tool did you use to change this switch out and what other components did you have to remove? I'm at a loss. I tried every idea at our base auto hobby shop and nothing worked because of the tight location and the main wiring harness being directly above the switch. Thanks.
