gday guys and gals. Ok was installing a revering camera last night. While using a light tester to find the revers power wire I bumped and it got a quick shorting out. Then no revers lights. Go figure right. Anyway I went to check for the burnt off fuse,(under drivers side) to my surprise no fuses where blown. But still no revers light Turing on when shift is placed in revers. Checked the fuse box under the bonnet, again fuses or ok. So I went bad to the plug in the boot. Located a power wire and used it on the not working reversing power lead. Touched the two and the revers lights come on. So when power applied the lights work, so both neg & pos wires must still be in contact.
Question is: is there a fuse located anywhere else for the revers lamps only? Or has anyone else ran into this same self inflicted problem. Was 3:30am I was nodding off, little tester slipped to next pin in the plug. Anyway anyone with any idea/s on this one. I have a fair knowledge of wiring, But I am no auto electrician.
Thanks

Yeah found the switch tonight. But dummy tested the plug and no lights. Meant to be some fuse in the ECU-IG fuse. Will check it out tomorrow before attacking the gearbox switch.

Dam this cars wiring is a mess. Slowly sorting through it. No luck on the reverse lights yet. But there is 2 white plugs at the drivers side kick panel(the in side fuse box area) anyone got a wiring diagram that can tell me what the red wire on the upper plug is for? Has a ****load of wires someone's connected to it that's keeping my inner door lights on. I've disconnected it for now. Doesn't seem to be to anything major as cars running fine with it disconnected. But I'd like to find out what it's for, so any help would be grateful. Cheers
