On the paper circuit, there are two contacts for the reverse light, one on top, one on bottom. When I test the light, neither grounds, on either side. It seems like one should. When I put the meter across either one of these and the last black wire, I read 12v when in reverse. It just will not light the bulb. I'll take the bubl holders out and hit them with a wire brush, see if that helps. Otherwise, does anyone know the wire layout for the big plug? I might just hardwire the reverse lights.

ps, reverse lights are not on the bulb failure thing, are they?
