check the connector that goes to the neutral safety switch, make sure it goes all the way in. You can test by putting you transmission shifter between P and R, or between R and N, see if the light is on.

By the way these reverse light are important. when my reverse light does not work, I almost got hit on parking structure by the other driver because he did not know that i was backing up
