The switch is on the front of the box around by the clutch arm. What gaerbox have you got Be1 (reverse next to 1st) or Be3 (recerse under 5th).

 

I would have a look at the bulb and the bulb holder as corrosion is now a common problem.

After checking all bulbs and holders , theres a switch wire at the bottom near the clutch /gear which controls the reverse lights when it goes in reverse might be also worthwhile checking that switchwire.

ok, does it have phase 2 light clusters fitted?

 

if so its likely that someone just hasn't fitted the wire and the reverse light unit in the bumper in place of the nearside reflector.

 

if it still have the phase 1.5 rear light units then check as the other guys suggested.
