Sounds like a short to earth through your reverse light switch, crawl under and take a look or take it to the auto elec

My ignition light dims when I select reverse has done for 10 yrs so I think the stalling could be unrelated. A short in a live wire will usually blow any related fuses, there are two wires on the reversing light switch I will be corrected if I am wrong but I think both are "earth" when you select reverse it closes the circuit and the light comes on so even if one is loose and touches against a metal surface it should not short  
I'm thinking maybe the clutch isn't operating correctly
