Have you checked where the PDC connects into the main loom, which is behind the carpet on the driver’s side towards the rear of the boot? There’s no slack in the loom and it might have pulled loose, particularly if someone has had the bumper off in the past.

I'd start from the point of thinking about the reverse light switch. Not sure if that runs directly to the rear cluster or the LCM tho.
