Had the same problem with my GL. What I've heard is the back up blade in the shifting fork slips or falls out of line causing no contact when you shift into reverse. They have to replace reconnect thru transmission. 5 years without backup lights.
The whole turn signal arm unit needs to be replaced
Defective switch, switch not adjusted, blown fuse
The backup lights are a different bulb, then the turn signals and brake lights and The Number 1 reason would be that the bulbs are burned out and need replaced. Good Luck and Remember.Change Your Mind, Not Your Oil.Use the First In Synthetic Motor Oil's.See My Bio For Information & Contact Details.
how do you replace backup lights on 99 grand am?
It doesn't have any. The only C2 (1963-1967) with backup lights is the '67.
intermitten problems are the worst to figure out i would first start by changing the bulbs then i would change the wiring harness. i know i had a car that when the tail lights were on the blinkers wouldn't work and it turned out to be a short in the harness.
NO - They all have there OWN circuit & are powered by a fuse or fuselink.
Check the wire on the left trunk hinge. Many Camry suffer broken wires at that place.
Tail lights. Brake lights. Backup lights. Signal lights. License plate lights.
There are two backup lights next to the red tail lights.
