The switch that controls that is located on the transmission. And when the car is in reverse it engages that switch. It is accesible from the outside of the transmission. The switch either needs to be adjusted or replaced. Check at the switch to see if ther is power going in and coming out. If there is no power going out then the switch is bad and needs to be replaced
