Sam C Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 hi allFor some reason my reverse lights aren't coming on when I engage reverse gear. I've pulled the carpets and gearbox tunnel out and tried connecting the wires together that attach to the gearbox - and that causes the lights to come on.So I'm thinking there's something wrong with whatever mechanism there is in the gearbox to connect the wires when reverse is engaged. Does anyone have any idea what this might be and whether it's easy to replace?Many thanks allSam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
