[DML] Reverse lights

[Soma576@xxxxxxx]

Hey Group,
 
I am not very good at troubleshooting electrical problems so I thought I  
would see if anyone else has had this problem.
 
My reverse lamps stopped working.  Of course the first thing I did was  check 
the fuse - still good.  I checked the bulbs - they looked good but I  swapped 
them with the brake lamps (both are 1156's) and still no go.  I  jacked up 
the rear end and checked the reverse switch on the MT.  My meter  shows +12 on 
the switch spades when the wires are attached to them and the car  is in 
reverse.  I removed the female spades, cleaned the terminals, pinched  them with 
pliers, and put them back on.  Still no reverse lamps.  
 
Any ideas?
