Did your use the right bulb, sometimes if you use something that is to much for the car, it will burn it out again.

2001 nissan sentra (released in the phils) reverse or back lights dont work..This car has 4 reverse lights. Left, right and two in the middle (near the plate number).When i put the car in reverse, only the...

sounds like you have a bad ground wire or the wire going to the sides is broken. you may have to check the connections till you find where the wires are connected. if you can test the two side lights with a battery to confirm they do work and are not bad bulbs. or switch them with working light bulbs to confirm they work. then if they work they you need to start looking for a section of wire that may be broken or is corroded and will need to reconnected to make work again.

Reverse lights dont come on

Check for voltage at the neutral safety switch if the bulbs are good.
The switch also powers the backup light bulbs in reverse.

My back reversing lights wont work but the bulbs and the fuse are all good?

Hello and welcome to FixYa!

If that's the case then it's definitely a reverse switch issue. If the reverse switch is faulty, the reverse light won't work even if the bulbs are fine. It is located underneath the transmission where it triggers when reverse is engaged. Have it replaced and you'll be good.
Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

When I put my truck in reverse the reverse lights dont work

There is a reverse light switch in your gearshift on some cars/trucks that can go bad..
I would check the light bulbs, then the wiring back to your reverse lights, check to see if you have a fuse that could of blown for your model truck, then think about replacing your reverse switch.

1988 pathfinder no dash lights no revers lights no tail lights no gaiges

If they all stopped working at the same time then it is probably a fuse or possibly 2. Check your fuse panels in the dash and under the hood. The dash lights and gauges should be a fuse labeled instrument cluster or guages, it is probably blown. The other fuse to look for will be the tail light fuse. This is where I would begin.

2005 chevy suburban- my back-up lights and interior dome lights do not work. All fuses appear intact? Suggestions?

you bcm (body control module is bad) to have the dealer replace it will run you about $400. a quick fix for the reverse light is to splice 2 wires into the wire for the center plug in your trailer wiring. now run a wire up to each reverse light, cut the green wire to each reverse light and **** conect them up. this is a seperate revers feed than the one from the bcm. the dome lights remove the light cover on the second set of interior lights (the one between the drivers seats). the two side bulbs are map lights the center bulb is for the dome lights. run a jumper wire from the right or leftside socket to the center socket. you dome lights will now turn on with just the use of that switch i replaced the back bulbs with led's soo there is no extra amp's being drawn. you could bypass the bcm but i could not find any wiring diagrams for it and i dont know if it can take the added amp's

Reverse lights on my vauxhal corsa v reg are not working

It`s the reverse light switch under the bonnet had to replace it on my 16v t reg corsa costs about 8-£10 and comes off easily because it`s just a bolt with electricals leading to the back lighting. This happens on every Corsa. Let me guess Your Heater control lights and fan swich lights have gone too on the interior. Any problem corsa related, been there done it.
