Maybe try removing the rear driver's side light cluster and review the spider web inside. The little audible warning unit for reversing (if fitted) has caused me problems in the past, along with poor connections from towbar electrical connections etc.

Worth checking the earth, maybe just run a new one.

Plus, is the brake light working?

If its getting power and is well earthed it will be the bulb holder that is at fault .Try cleaning the contacts .
