Hi All Had my 206 for coming up to 4 years, and never had a reversing light working on it. I must admit, that ive not tried that hard to get rid of it, but it was my new years resolution to get it sorted. Ive tried the bulbs, and ive had a look at the fuse, none have solved my problem. So whats next out of the reversing light switch or new bulb holders?? Cheers all.

Use a multi-meter to check power is getting to the bulb holders, if not, then check the continuity through the switch when reverse is engaged.

Even easier to visually look to see if the switch is connected first? Sometimes left disconnected through other work like a clutch.

Also check that the bulb holder is earthed. Lots of bulbs don't work because the holder no longer has continuity to earth.
