Postby fto-holland » Mon Nov 17, 2008 8:05 pm

Hello,

have any one has the problem that the reverse lights don't work.

i am thinking that it is the sensor at the gearbox.because the light bulbs are ok.

bye,

Remove the connector for the reverse switch and short the 2 pins and see if you lights come on.
Make sure ignition is on.

To check the switch (with the connector removed) put the car in reverse and check for continuity between the pins on the switch. It may just be stuck. Remove th switch and press the spring loaded pin.
