Since this is an electrical issue, lets consult a schematic:


EDIT: Check the backup light switch, sorry I do not know its specific location. Otherwise pull out a test light and start probing.

The rest of the electrical diagrams can be found here: [INFO] Chassis Electrical System - Typical Wiring Diagrams Scans

The backup light switch is mounted on top of the transmission.

check the wires plugging into the switch for corrosion, mine were really hard and brittle, practically broke apart when I went to undo them.

I usually fill up my transmission fluid through this hole when doing a drain and refill since its in an easily accessible spot.

Try cleaning out the connector. With age, grime builds up in the plug. Check the male pins in the connectors to make sure they are not corroded. If all looks good there, they pulling back some of the sheathing to see if the wires are corroded there. If not, time to pull out your DMM (Digital Multimeter) and start probing.

Hey...find the ground wire and check if this connected, maybe when you replace the bulb it was snapped from it's connection. Positive and negative must be working both to give you power.

Try removing the bulbs and putting them back in a different way. I had to do that today with my front corners.
