ikarma70 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Hi all,long time no post! Can anyone tell me where the reverse sensor/switch is on a 1.25 zetec motor pls(photo's would be helpful too for anyone else for future reference)? My reverse light has packed up and I'm sure its the sensor,its not the bulb as my rear lights work ok and it has been an intermittant problem as when the reverse is engaged,the light goes on but let go off the gearstick,it goes out. thanks in advance.

CAR PARTS EXPRESS Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 There are 2 different types but its usually a square plastic switch about 2" x 3" in size , black and white fitted on the box.if not it will be a metal circular switch down on the front of the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
