There are a couple of reasons why a 2005 Saturn Ion's reverse lights will not work. The fuses may be blown or the light bulbs need to be replaced. Fuses and bulbs can be purchased at any auto parts store.
blown fuses
Yes, though they arent imediately obvious as they are hidden by a red tint. Turn on ignition so the dash lights up, but dont start the engine, put the gearstick in reverse and walk round back of the car. voila.
no they arent rotation on the sun
if i read that right lol all cars do that that is just the way they are set up if ur lights arent on your brake light dont need to be on hell as long as someone sees your reverse lights ur fine but anyways all cars do that
Could be a fuse or could be a bad bulb. See sources and related links below for bulb part numbers.
Was the fuse blown. If not then your instrument lights are probably just turned off. There is a rheostat to turn the lights up and down. Read your owner's manual for the location.
The brake lights and tail lights are separate wiring systems. Even some of the bulbs may have two separate bulbs in the same glass housing. If the bulbs are in fact working, then the next step would be to test the brake switch under the dash. When you depress the brake pedal the switch is pushed creating a connection to turn on the brake lights.
dashboard lights arent white because in daytime you wouldn't be able to see the lights flash
They arent "they" are working on making themselves richer.
Tailights and dash lights are often fused together. Check the fuse for instrument lights. Also if the fuse is blown and you have a trailer connector on the truck, really look for a short there. I hope this helps a little.
your break switch on your break pedal.
if he does, they arent working.
