Fuse for reverse lights?

Hey guys just running through the users manual and cant find anything specific about reverse light fuses. The manual just shows parking lamps and headlights i believe.

My issue is i just upgraded to a Raxiom set of tail lights. All was going well simple plug and play. Now the reverse lights dont even turn on at all anymore. Could it maybe be the plug the tail light wiring harness plugs into?

Use a digital volt meter to see if there is power getting to the proper wire in the plug when in reverse with the key in the run position. That way you have knowledge as to where the power is or is not....or plug in you original tail lights and see if they work.

Bleh, the digital volt meter will have to wait til tomorrow

Also inside the taillight is there a piece of metal to complete the circuit? Maybe i put them in the slot backwards?

EDIT: Just reinstalled the old taillights. Still not working. I had my rear diff checked out by ford. Maybe they took off the plug to the tranny?(If what im reading on here is right)

Hey still havent gotten around to getting a voltage reading. Father inlaw has it... The set is second hand from a member here so no worries on that front.

The issue seems to be with my wiring harness or something. All my lights work, parking lights, sequential turning lights. Just the back up lights are non existent .
