When I put my Tahoe in reverse, the reverse lights do not come on. The bulbs are fine. Is there some kind of switch or relay that could have gone bad?

Hello, you might check the park-neutral switch. It should be located on the transmission. The voltage for the backup lites comes through the neutral switch. All the fuses are ok?
