Reversing lights not working

Hi all, does anyone know which fuse covers the reversing lights on the 2007 Seat Alhambra.
My drivers handbook does not show any fuse that covers this, and I am starting at this end and working
my way to the reversing light switch. I have pulled a few fuses but am assuming it to be 10 amps or less.
No faulty fuses yet!

       Any help greatly appreciated.

I would start at switch first just unplug and bridge it out see if lights come on. Also worth a check of the tailgate wiring harness as always a possibility there are some broken wires.

Reverse lights are no5 15amp but you would lose other stuff aswell as parking sensors as that fuse does a few different circuits.

Has it got parking sensors? have they stopped working aswell.

I drive a Seat Alhambra 1.9Tdi which has 115bhp and an automatic gearbox.

I am happy to help you with all your questions. I am not a qualified mechanic but seem to be better at fixing my car than even the most experienced garages.

I have lots of friends here and very much enjoy talking with you all. Always remember, a motor car is a serious tool and should be treated with respect. Put your safety first, always.

Thanks Chrispb, problem sorted,(broken wire in tailgate)
Regards, Andy Johnson.

 [GJ] As the car ages there will be more issues with door and tailgate wiring, something to look forward to :)
