regarding the reverse lights, i am pretty sure the switch is a bit tempremental when you mess around with them, sometimes just don't engage for some reason. Rear light prob a dodgy solder on the board somewehre.

Also for your rear lights try unplugging the wires from the board and back on a few times. This will clean the contacts a little and might do the trick.
