78 FJ40 w/H55
My reverse lights aren't working. Everything else back there is. Checked the bulbs and ground. Good. I was going to start with the reverse switch, but had the rear light covers off today to freshen up with a light bezel refinish kit from Cerakote (amazing btw), so started back there.
Here's what I found:
1) I do not have continuity between both sides of the reverse lights.
2) I put the vehicle in reverse, no power to either side
I don't have a wiring diagram, but assume at some point the positive wires for the reverse lights meet up somewhere in the wiring harness before the reverse switch - does anyone know where?
In the mean time, I'm going to confirm I have 12V coming off the reverse switch when engaged. But the fact the two reverse lights don't have continuity to each other is concerning.
Thanks!
