3 wire switch on the side of the transmission, the plug could be loose, switch could be faulty, wire could be damaged. Number of things could be wrong, unfortunately there is no "do this to fix it" answer.

The short pig-tails coming off the bulb housings are prone to failure at the harness connectors. Check there for corroded/broken wires & 12vdc power when in reverse.
