Default Relay for reverse light

Hello everyone,

First and foremost I've spent a good part of the day searching. My reverse lights stopped working and I'm diagnosing the problem. Checked the bulb, and fuses.

I couldn't find the relay for the reverse light. Was wondering if anyone could direct me to it? I've seen some fuse/relay layouts for earlier model Z's but not one for an '06.

I know it might be the switch next to the transmission, but I'd like to check the relay before I go there.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I have base 2006, manual.

did you look behind the battery compartment? not the ones on top of the battery, but actually behind the battery.

Bmurray: I looked at the fuse box behind the battery, but the relays aren't labeled.

Bob: yeah looks like it'll be the switch just wanted to at least check the relay before I get under the car
