jump the 2 wires to the switch together on the gearbox, if they come on its the switch, if they dont its the wiring or fuse.

The later switch is a 2 pin jobber and is screwed into the top of the box, if its an early one you might find its part of a MPG/shiftlight switch which is screwed into the side of the shifter hump.

my reverse lights on my cabriolet dont work, so i changed the switch and they still didnt work, then when i went to work one day someone told me the reverse lights were on when i was driving forward. must be wiring somewhere.
