Take the wires off from the reversing light switch (on the gearbox) check for a live at one of the wires if yes short the two wires out the lights should come on. If that works you need the switch on the gear box.

If you're suffering from lag, you're either in the wrong gear or the wrong car!

Would I be able to do this myself or would i need to drop it into a garage?

You can do it yourself if you have a tester that will tell you if there is a live feed

that happened to me before and all it was a wire disconnected in the engine bay coming from the lights, reconnected it and they have worked since

All of life’s problems can be solved with two things—duct tape and WD40. If it moves and it shouldn’t, you need duct tape. And if it doesn’t move and it should, you need WD40

No I hit a cat at 100kmh and smashed a fog and all of a sudden my fogs were working, i reckon it may have been the led sidelight bulbs that were causing the problem
