Hi all,
Have reverse bulb lamp out, have tried to change the bulb but no luck, where to should I start on figuring out the problem. I have checked the fuses and don’t think any had blown, all other bulbs are working include the left side reverse bulb. Am very lost so all help is appreciated

If one side is working then it won't be the switch, must be the bulb holder? I can't recall the setup on a uk car now as I'm on euros.

have you modded lights as theres only one reverse light on Uk Probes have you a picture
if you have 2 clear lenses l/R it may not be wired up try putting the fog light switch on
and see if the bulb lights up

& if the bulbs not painted red, or removed, it's an MOT fail
Same if you have no rear Fog Light

Hi Duncan.
Is there a limit on reverse light wattage. The Flying Machine is totally compliant and also totally useless.
