Reverse lights or lack off 2005 disco 3

Hi ,
Noticed today when the wife backed the disco , off the drive i had no reverse lights , so this afternoon , i took the light clusters off checked the bulbs which both looked intact , so checked them with my voltmeter in continuity mode all ok , so checked the fuse no 5 10amp according to the manual same thing all ok, so ran the test , no issues there but still no lights , even fired the motor up and selected reverse no lights , so just to make sure swapped bulbs swapped fuse still no lights , tested wires at the plug end no power .

any ideas of what the issue could be ?

cheers Iain

After the bulbs you have:

Wiring harness
Loose or corroded connector(s)
Reversing lamp relay
Missing reversing switch signal

Central junction box (CJB)
Transmission control module (TCM)

Ok but double check all fuses and confirm if anything else that works of the reverse sensor (parking sensors, reverse dip mirrors etc) works or not. You don't want to look too blonde…
