reverse light not working ? plus a couple other quesstions

[CB71st]

so i found out that i have a reverse light out, so i went to check to make sure that the bulb was still good and the bulb is basically brand new.
does anyone know why my bulb isnt lighting up ?
i was thinking wiring or something but how would i check for that ?

another thing is i have an EX-R, i plan to take the A/C out because 1 - i have a sunroof and its pointless for me to have A/C, and the damn thing doesnt work anyways ...
after taken the A/C what model of Accord should i look for for my belt ?

and the thermostat plug that goes into the engine i ripped that off by an accident taken my tranny out, are they a hard fix ?

My car wasnt very well taken care of so i will most likely be posting more problems whenever i find them lol, thanks for any help !

the lights not working could be due to a fuse under the hood lable stop/horn, furthermore, if the stop/horn fuse is bad you wont be able to shit into Drive without the key. i had a problem with my back lights and it was because someone installed aftermarket taillights. replaced with oem and they workgreat now.

Your reverse light switch on top front of the transmission might be dead that is why your reverse light wont light up. Get a new one from a autopart store or got to a local junkyard and pull a few Reverse switch to replace.... why a few because they are old and some might be dead already.

would that still be the case although the drivers side works and the pass doesnt ?

If one side work and the ohter wont then... it might be wiring or bulb problem.
Make sure you use the correct bulb.

yeah i just checked like 10 minutes ago stop/horn fuse is perfect looks like a new fuse, and the reverse light switch is working fine as well.
but i was thinking it may be a wiring problem or the bulb ... maybe ill switch the woking bulb to see if its the bulb but im pretty sure its the wiring lol.
if it were wiring how would i find out or how would i find out where the problem is ?
not 100% sure how i could fix that lol

thanks for all the help

make sure the light socket is clean. need a good connection for them to work. take a test light (less than $10 at walmart) and test the wires in and out of the socket. got power in and ground out, wiring good but socket bad. replace with new/jy socket.

as for a new belt after ac delete. get one that is for a non ac engine. most parts stores have a listing with or without ac. get the witout ac belt and you should be fine.

any other questions, just ask. we are here to help
