Guest fredt Posted October 2, 2004 Report Posted October 2, 2004 Its mounted on the gearbox, small rectangular block held in place by two spring clips, bit of a pain to get on a V6 :D but should be no trouble on your 2ltr with all the extra space you have in the engine bay! the switch is located on top of the gearbox on the hump in the box where the selector cables connect, get a new switch as it will give you an idea of what your looking for the reason for the intermittant reversing lights are due to the switch being operated by a pin on the selector mech, the pin being pointed at the end wear's a groove in the plastic part of the switch and hence the loss of lights once the gear stick is released! you could undo the pin and space it out further by the use of a washer but it will only fail again :D do a search on the topic IIRC a photo of the switch was posted as was the part number Quote
