Reversing lights dont work

Postby peter43 » Thu Apr 10, 2014 12:45 pm

Hi,
Reversing lights dont work, is there a video instructions on how to change the fuse in the engine compartment. Or could it be the sensor?

Regards Peter

Have you checked both bulbs? If you have, then it could be the fuse or the switch, or if all else fails, then the wiring.

The fuse shouldn't be too difficult to get too. It's fuse 5C which you should be able to access by removing the fuse cover only - I've changed the sidelight fuses which are a bit further back and more difficult to access with a long nose plier.

If the fuse checks out ok, then it will probably be the switch....

Fuse marked 5fc is the correct fuse for reversing lights and is a 10amp fuse.This fuse gets it's voltage via a brown 12 terminal connector on the engine bay fuse box marked pph2 brown connector. Terminal 9 on this connector is the reversing light output. Hth Regards Mickeybo

Hi,

When your front window wipers are on and you select reverse does your rear wiper come on ? If not it could be your reversing switch on the gearbox housing .

good luck.
