Reverse lights not working since gearbox change.

Hi guys,

As above, after swapping to an M2B4 my reverse lights now don't come on. Where should look for gearbox switch?
I'm pretty sure both bulbs wouldn't have blown at the same time and if it's not that is there anything else I should look at?

Cheers guys.

Lee.

Switch is on the gearbox itself man, likely not plugged in.

That's your back up light sensor on the gearbox. Either clean not plugged in or replace it.

I think I'll rephrase the question haha! :)

Where abouts on the gearbox is the switch?
Cheers guys. :D

In the middle here, it'll be on the top of the gearbox when in the car.

Follow up fron EvilDmen's question - are those switches serviceable/repairable as mine is dead too.

I just replaced mine since it kept throwing ATTS error codes when VTEC'in out of a roundabout.

Ahh cheers Vtecmec, I thought that was the speed sensor.

If I can't get mine working I'll have to crack my one off my old box. I'm sure that will be fun! Haha!

I wouldn't have thought so. I've just ordered an Intermotor one from ebay. There were £9.99 options, but they look rubbish, so I opted for a £20.63 delivered one as it's a recognised brand and the quality just looked that much better.

Don't suppose I can be cheeky/lazy and ask for a link to the £20 one, please?
