Hi

The reverse lights have a fuse near the ignition coil, also check the wire connectors on the firewall near #1 cylinder, also check the wiring on the reverse light switch on the front nose of the gearbox.

Check to see if you have power at brake light switch and that the wires are connected. With the ignition on bridge the two wires for the brake light switch, if the lights are working now your brake light switch needs replacing.
