back up light circuit
Does anyone know where the hot wire from the back up light switch actually connects going forward? I am not getting anything coming into the switch. The fuse is good.

it should have one wire thats hot when the key is on, and the other wire turns the lights on when its hot. if you test with the key off, you won't find any power there
