If you stand for the car, it`s the switch on the right of the gearbox.
If you take the wheel of you can see it.
I think if you take the switch out, the box is gonna leak oil.
But if you have a new switch, you can change it without leaking to much.

Re: reverse light switch
does a faulty switch result in the reverse light staying on even if the car is turned of ?
if how much does one swith cost and/or is repair possible ?

Re: reverse light switch
Id have thought that would have something to do with the power source or the earth than the switch. There shouldn't be any power when the car's off.Zerbot wrote:does a faulty switch result in the reverse light staying on even if the car is turned of ?

My 480 doesn't break... it just rests
