Perhaps your reverse light bulbs? Put the gear in reverse and have someone checked the lights for you. Let us know the result !

and it could also be your LED 3rd brake light too, if ones fugged, that'll come on.

set the ebrake, and park downhill slightly, put it in reverse, ram a stick or soemthing between the brake pedal and hte seat, so the brakes come on, then run around back and have a look
