88 vert reverse lights fuse?

Is there a fuse for the reverse lights in a 88 NA vert? My lights aren't working and I wasn't able to find a fuse that specified reverse lights. The lights aren't blown.

Meter fuse. Do your guages work? If so, then it isn't the meter fuse. Might be the reverse switch itself.

Gauges work.

Works like the jpg above. Power leaves the Meter fuse.........goes to a connector called FE-02........goes on to the backup light switch plug E-12, on the left side of the transmission........thru the switch to the other half of E-12 and back to FE-02 and then on to the backup lights.

FE-02 stands for a Front harness connector mating to a Engine harness connector. That plug is located below the brake master cylinder. Six sockets/pins plug. Not likely to be the problem there. More likely the switch itself. Pull the plug off the switch and see if the Black/Yellow wire has batt power. Key to ON is all that is required. OR pull that plug off the switch and jumper the black/yellow to the Red/Green wire in the plug(s). Backup lights should shine proving the switch is bad.

As in jumper b/t the two black bullet connectors with those wire colors. Backup light should light up if the key is ON.
