What happens when you actually put it into reverse? The OTHER reverse light comes on? If so, I'd check all the bulb sockets for shorted connections between sockets in the taillamp cluster that aren't supposed to be connected.

Sometimes an open ground can do things like that too. Check the ground connections while you're looking at the taillamp clusters.
