Operation
The supply to reversing light switch 31 is taken from fuse 13, across 29-pole white connector 152A. When reverse gear is engaged, the contacts will close and reversing lamps 32 will light up.

Certain models destined for certain markets are also equipped with side reversing lights 119, located in the front light clusters. The side reversing lights are supplied from the reversing light switch via connector 152A.

Fault-tracing hints
The reversing lights are switched on when reverse gear is engaged and the ignition switch is in the drive position.

1. Check fuse 13 and check that the supply to it is live.
2. Check that the reversing light switch terminals are live.
3. Check the bulbs and check that the supplies to them are live. Check the earthing at each lamp.
4. Check the connectors and the relevant cable harness.
