Default Reverse light issue 05 Rado



Hey everybody, I’m new here and I am looking for some help. I have a 2005 Silverado that I recently put all LED lights in and everything was working fine. I had a PEAK reverse camera laying around so I decided to install it, splicing it into my drivers side pigtail for the reverse light. Now the camera works but neither reverse light does. All fuses are good and I’m assuming the neutral switch is good because the camera comes on when I put the truck in reverse. Any ideas ?

It sounds like there may be an issue with the wiring where you spliced the camera into the reverse light circuit. Double-check the connections to make sure they are secure and correct. It's possible that the splice caused a short or interrupted the power to the reverse lights. You can also check if the reverse light bulb sockets are getting power when the truck is in reverse. If the power is there, the bulbs might be faulty. If everything looks good, it may be helpful to check the ground connections as well.
