I unfortunately have received a repair ticket for inoperative rear license plate lamps. Being somewhat mechanical I had figured out how to get to the bulbs and planned an easy repair by replacing those 194 bulbs, Wrong! Back up lights are also inop. I unfortunately don't have the origional owners manual and am figuring a possible fuse problem but don't know where?
Any help would be Greatly appreciated.
I love this car, handles like a vet while getting awesome mileage.
