like it says i just got a s13 and its great but i have a few problems the first is that the reverse lights dont work i have changed the fuse and the bulbs but the reverse lights dont work the others do though. the second problem is that the driver side seat belt doesnt move foreward at all. i have little mechanical know-how and if anyone can please explain to me if there is a way to fix this myself it would be appreciated thanks

The rear lights might have a short somewhere. The seatbelts might have a worn out motor.

i just found out it was a disconnected wire for the seatbelts, easy fix. I still cant find anything wrong with the reverse lights i have checked fuses bulbs wires and transmission... i have also found out my cruise control does not work is there a fuse for this or something somewhere i dont know what could be causing that but all the fuses seem good too. thanks for the advice

for the reverse lights, there might be a cable thats worn out or its not makin ground, i had a similar problem with the whole left side piece, nothing would work, it turns that there was no ground... :12dunno

my reverse light used to turn on when i put it in fifth. turns out there was a wire mix up near the transmission. ended up disconnected the reverse lights altogether.

Yeah, I bet the lighting problem is just a disconnected wire somewhere. Take off the paneling in the back and just make sure that everything is connecting as it should be. Also, if you have a multimeter you can check the voltage back there at the light and see if you can rule that out first.

haha lil trick for cruise control i found, turn it on.
take ur clutch foot and pull the pedal up so its as high as i goes and then u can remove ur foot now hit CC and it should activate.

i guess the pedal is jus to low, it has to be at its highest position to activate
