Backup light issue

Hey all, new to the site.
I have an '07 HHR LS.. My problem is the backup lights quit working and I don't know why. The bulbs are fine and so is the fuse. Anyone know what could be wrong? Is there a relay and if so where is it? Thanks for any help.

Under hood fuse is #47. from there it (Pnk wire) goes to the Park/Neutral Position Switch (if it is a Automatic) or the Backup Lamp Switch (if manual Tranny) and then the wire (Lt Grn) goes to the left and right Back Up Lamps which are grounded with a Blk wire completing the circuit. No idea where the switch is located, someplace by the shifter most likely. NO RELAY.

So does anyone know where the switch is located or a diagram that shows it?

If not, use the ol' standby - hang your head out the window and turn on your flashlight. That will work as long as the batteries hold up and it ain't raining too hard.
