Since I've owned the car the reverse lights have not worked and neither has the cruise control.
I'd like to have both of these operating again.
Reverse Lights:
Was given the CC-ID: 117
Left reverse bulb out. I swapped both bulb holders and bulbs. It's not the bulbs or anything else. When checking voltage I only get .03 volts for the reverse voltage when in gear.
The purple and black cable must have a bad side somewhere grounding out. I have repaired the fire loom that goes from the trunk to the car and soldered multiple wires including the brown ground wire. I fear the wire for the reverse lights is deep in the car where I could not see the part that is causing the problem.
Since both reverse lights are out it must be past the whole trunk entirely.
I have reset the FRM for the reset counter with tool32 and still the same voltage.
Clutch switch works and has been tested.
Fuses all good.
This leads me to the next problem
Cruise Control:
No error at all on the BC or INPA
When I try to click the cruise on or even do anything with the stalk it is in "just for looks mode".
I've been trying to figure out how to test the stalk in INPA to see if the car is even recognizing it.
The brake pedal is not being depressed either; the switch is good.
What makes this even more weird is usually putting the mirror toggle to the left usually tilts the right mirror down; it does not go. Is that also wired with the reverse lights?
If anyone has any idea to what is going on here or any fixes or help please comment. If someone can successfully help me get these back I will PayPal $$$.
TL;DR
Reverse lights out; cruise control won't work
All fuses good; switches good.
Help fix
