Both reverse lights went off

Postby SandyHenderson » Sun May 16, 2021 1:20 pm

Both my reverse lights have stopped working. I'm guessing I'm looking for a fuse in the engine bay fuse box but don't know which one it is. Anyone able to help?

I would look more at the gear box switch

Check first how Blue said. My switch needs replacing too. The only way I know this, is my reversing sensors don't always come on unless I take it in and out of reverse a couple of times. The reversing sensors are linked to the live wire that goes to the reverse lights on one of the rear clusters. :!:

Is this switch built into the selector mechanism? Because I've already had that replaced!

No, it screws into the gearbox and plugs in. More or less under the battery I think.
