    Any idea on the back up lights? New sockets and bulbs but nothing.

    Update. Have all lights for the exception of turn signals. 4-ways, reverse, brake, and running lights all work. I also replaced the flasher thats by the fuse panel. I can't think of anything other than the switch unless theres another flasher i don't know about.

    There are two flashers, if one you found clicks with the 4-ways on, you need to keep lookin'...

    The R&L flasher is usually behind lower section of dash at your left knee...
