my back up lights dont turn on when i put it in reverse !!!!!

so i have a 07 civic coup si i bought from a used dealership. the reverse lights dont come on when in revers... i checked the fuse and it looked good but i replaced it anyway. still dont work. also the lights were the bottons for the radio and air controllers dont come on. but everything else does. i took it back to the dealer where i bought it since it had limited warrenty and they fixed the problem with the revers light but not the lights in the controllers for the raido and air. well now a years gone by and the reverse lights quit working again and i checked the fuse and again it looked good but i changed it anyway and still the lights wont work. any idea what the problem could be??? please anyoen with answers or similer problem would help

If the bulbs are ok then it could be the relay that controls the lights or the switch that controls the relay after you put it in reverse. Does it have any aftermarket electrical stuff on it?

I replied to your post on the 8th gen site,

I printed the page I found, PM with an e-mail address and I will scan it in at work tomorrow.

It will explain better what we have told you.
