If there is power, the switch on your tranny is either disconnected or simply has crapped out on you. Try pulling the plug off the switch and connecting them to see if the reverse lights go on. If they do,I'm right about the switch.

Check the electrical connections by the transmission - mine were connected, but corroded. Unplugged them, cleaned them up with a small wire brush, and they worked again.
