Reverse/Backing (Up) Lights Not Working

<HR style="COLOR: #666666" SIZE=1> Hi,
I have a F350 w/ a flat bed. For whatever reasons the reverse lights will not come on. I was wondering if there was a fuse for this light or a switch that could have gone bad. I did replace the bulbs and still no good. I bought a new switch, but can't find where it goes. If, it goes under the hood or near the transmission. Any help would be great.


Thank you,

Eric

it depends on the year of the truck and the type of trans. but most of the automatic transmissions had the switch mounted behind the shift lever coming out of the side of the trans.
and most of the manual transmissions had the switch mounted in the trans near the shift tower.

I guess I should have included more info......It is a 93 F350 5 speed manual. I did spot out the switch and still no go. Any other ideas?

other than the switch and bulbs, the only other thing i can think of is a bad fuse or broken wire.
