No reverse lights :(

Reverse lights aren't working and bulbs are fine.

Also the rear parking sensors aren't working. I don't know if this is all related.

Please help

Both issues are related. It'll either be the fuse or the switch on the gearbox.

Fuses seem to be fine so must be the reverse switch on gearbox. Any guides on how to get to it and replace it?

It'll be the switch - mine did the same - take out the airbox and it's looking at you, a brown plastic plug sat on top of the gearbox.
