Hey guys sorry if this is in the wrong place I'm new any who I was Wondering if someone could shed some light on why my reverse lights won't work on my ke70 has a k50 I'm pretty sure I've checked the globes fuses and that but I'm dumb with electrical stuff any help would be appreciated cheers in advance :)

Theres a switch on the gearbox with 2 pins that need to be pressed on.

if you have changed your gearbox from something else like an auto to manual transmission, you might either have set up the reverse gear sensor in your gearbox wrong, in an automatic its in the gear shifter area so that the car doesn't start in anything other than park or neutral, this can be override but just bypassing it the black two get joined to bypass the auto's "start in park" system. The red two get used for the reverse lights. The green & white I left under the carpet. They carry power when the headlights are on to light up the auto shift display. The red wires plug into the plug into the reverse sensor plug, well you'll have to cut and re-plug the wires.

*Plug*

 

 

it may be that the wires are broken or cut somewhere else.

Cheers guys just looked and there dosent seem to be much there I've got 2 plugs and a snapped wire and a couple plugs coming off the engine bay loom but none of it seems to go together hahaha

Ah yeah..that'll do it mate. Hope you get it sorted ay

Search for the red and blue...

 

 

 

ooops-

OK, R is red for wiring, and L is blue (because they used B for black..) So RL is a red wire with a blue stripe.

 

From your fusebox (12) the red/blue wire goes to the gearbox reverse light switch, then to the lights at the back.

 

We need to know if your gearbox has been converted from auto to manual (different wiring, and the hole for the gearlever has been cut differently) and what colours the wires are that you have.
