Reverse lights not coming on ... cause?

[Drift]

Within the last month my both of my reverse lights stopped working. What could be the probable causes?

Thanks,Jeremy

forward most plug on the transmission, most likely one of the wires broke off. its happened to me like 10 times.

you probably did this already, but make sure the fuse isn't blown. I had the trunk apart trying to fix my reverse lights when I got the car and then I thought about the fuse, and it turned out someone had taken the fuse out and never put it back it. The reverse lights are on their own 10A fuse in the kick panel by the drivers foot.

Bump.. Sorry my reverse light is still not coming on, checked the fuse and its fine, and black s13 has mention something about the wires on the transmission?? i dont kno witch one

the stupid rice boy that had my car before me put in blue flashing lights and took out the stock bulbs. when i ripped that **** out and put in new bulbs they didn't work. after the volt tester everywhere i could think of i needed new light harnesses. so i got them at the junk yard put um in and problem solved

forward most plug on the transmission,

S13s have 3 plugs, S14s have 4. no matter what year, its the sensor closest to the engine. the wires tend to get brittle and break off.
