BULLTERRIER Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 being a bit of a numpty when it comes to all things mechanical i need some help from somebody more blessed in that department than i !.My reversing lights come on when i engage into gear but go out as soon as i take my hand fron the gear stick.If i then push back on the gear stick the lights come back on again.Obviously there is something no quite connecting but i cannot find where it is :huh: so any help would be appreciated....many thanks Quote
Masked Marauder Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 The switch on the gearbox is faulty. It is located on the top of the gearbox, pretty much under the battery tray by the look of the diagram, but I have not actually looked on the car. Quote
Guest marcusheawood Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 I did mine recently for MOT, and it was a swine! You need long thin arms, small but very strong hands and infinite reserves of patience; none of which I posess! My car is a VR6 so the installation is very tight, you may have more room depending on your configuration. The battery tray is not removable so you probably have to do this from under the car, use ramps if you have them so you can get the undertray off. The entire operation on mine was completely blind, I don't blame you if you don't fancy it. :huh: Quote
