Default Backup lights

Is there a particular fuse for them? The bulbs are good but they aren't turning on when I put in reverse.

There is a fuse for them. I also think that the +12v feed for them is the same one that powers your blinkers, AC, heater fan, few other things. Probably just a fuse though.

I think there is a switch in the column too. It may have went out.

I kept blowin the fuse for that in my 99 when the switch in the trans went out. So you might check that but I think there was somethin else on that fuse too that made it obvious when it blew.

both mine have been... there's a switch on the outside of the transmission that is for reverse and when it goes out it shorts out and blows the fuse every time you put it in reverse after putting a new fuse in. It's an inexpensive part and easy to replace. I'll find out which fuse it is so you can check it... it's in the panel on the left of the dash when you open the drivers door.

Honeys is nasty. You're better off going to the Vu. Most of the women at Honeys either have STDs or have faces so ugly they don't GET STDs because no-one wants them (now that's what I call preventative maintenance!!).

Didn't even know that had any Vu's up here....
I figured Honeys was a skank den since I never hear any of you pervs talking about going.

Yeah Honey's... Not a clean place hehe. Had a friend that was a waitress there (and won the waitress contest many times). Told me many nasty stories. Lets just say if you have enough money there isn't much some of the strippers (not waitresses) won't do. And they've been busted for it many times. Rick's Sugars and Honeys are all run by the same company. Haven't been to the vu though. Only been to Rick's and it's just as bad as Honey's.


Back on topic... Any luck checking that fuse Nick?

Honeys is pretty sick! I've been their twice, once on my 18th b-day and once on my buddies. The chicks there are pretty nasty and have some of the worst cottage cheese legs Ive ever seen! There was mabye one or two decent looking girls there. Funny thing happened tho, there was this one fat mexican chick that almost broke my buddies leg when she sat on it(we were just sitting at the table, no $$ involved)
