Default Back up light burned out HELP and Fuse question

Is there a fuse that I should check? All of a sudden my reverse back up lights stopped working. Fuse or bulbs? If its the FUSE can you guys tell me which fuse to replace for my 98 es300?
Also if its the bulbs, does anyone know how I access them?

Thanks

The fuse location for the back-up lights should be stated in your owner's manual. Check the electrical specs section from the manual.

The lights themselves can be accessed by first popping the trunk open. Then if you look directly behind the license plate, you'll see a door cut out behind the tailights that's velcroed in. Unhook the door from the lining, and you should see 2 bulb connectors (one for the reverse light, the other for the tailight at night). Remove the back-up light bulb by twisting its connector and pulling the bulb out. Reverse the same steps for installation.

Ok, fuse was fine, but I replaced it anyway, still didnt cure it. So Im going to look at the bulbs next weekend.

Also anyone know about THE CLOCK and OUTSIDE POWER MIRRORS? Mine dont work, even after replacing the fuse. Do you guys recommend I do anything else to try to get them to work?
