clean all the contacts up with some fine emery paper, plus the contacts on the bulb, i had a similar problem....a swift blow to the light cover sorted mine for a short time.

But defo clean the contacts up

Will more than likely be a faulty connection on the plug for the rear lights. The reverse light will probably be a faulty reverse light switch on the gearbox.

If you have a multi meter then you can test the wiring for the lights ;)

doubt it'll be the fuses tbh if they only come on when they feel like it. but you may be lucky. Check the thing under brake pedal to see if thats ok.
