Default Reverse lights not working on S2

I have bit of a problem with my rear lights, they all work except the reverse lights.

I have checked the bulbs and they are fine, I checked the connections and they seem all fine. So I am now baffled on what to do.

What else can I check?

Check the reverse light switch. Its on the front of the gearbox to the right of the starter motor (looking from the front). Pull the plug off the switch and put a piece of wire agross the 2 terminals in the plug. If the reverse lights come on then replace the switch, if they dont then you have a wiring fault.
