Reverse light switches – how to choose a reverse gear sensor

On certain gearbox designs, the reverse light switch activates the rear reversing lamps when reverse gear is selected. This category contains switches for many vehicle models. They differ in construction, thread and electrical connector.

How to select the right part

Compare the OE number, gearbox type, connector design, number of pins, thread and switch location. Similar appearance does not guarantee correct operation or the right actuator length.

Fault symptoms and servicing advice

If the reversing lamps fail to illuminate, check the bulbs, fuses, wiring and switch. Work on the gearbox according to manufacturer procedures, ensuring a leak-tight installation.
