Back up lights.
04 FX4 F150. My back up lights are not working. I tried new lights and check the fuse. Don't know what it could be. Thanks for any help.

Which fuse(s) did you check ?
Have you tried a meter on the connector, to see if you are getting power when in reverse ( parking brake, key in run position, don't start ) and check the power to the ground in the connector, and then to a different ground.
Do you have a factory tow package and installed ?
Check the Trailer reversing circuit, to see if this is operational ( same with the meter, to the black w/ a light green stripe or the center pin ).
Need to figure out if the problem is a ground or if the reverse switch is out to lunch.
Did you install additional backup lamps on the reverse circuit ?
