I just bought this Saturn and noticed 1 of the reverse lights were blown, so when i changed the bulb both lights went out so now I have none. Does it have a fuse just to the lights since 1 was working before i changed the blown one? How can 1 work and i change the bad one and they both go out? thank-you. Wayne

There is a b/u lamps fuse, underhood junction block. The circuit goes hot when you turn on the key, so check voltage, also. For an automatic it is wired through the neutral switch. Try to check wiring at rear bulb sockets, see if that looks ok? You can also check voltage and ground, green is voltage, black is ground.
