Picture of reverse light switch

[godber225r]

Reading other threads on here about the reverse light switch going. mine works when it wants too so i want to change it. i think i found it on the gearbox (on the top, right next to the gear cable selector its accessable through the bonnet) is this the right one? not sure so i just wanted a picture from someone showing the exact location of it. i got part number and price for it, just a pic please.

cheers guys

to see it you have to take the lower part of the dash off!!! then its located on the hinge where the brake is purple looking thing

Thanks for your diagram gives me a better understanding of where the hell this switch is!! So you got to go inside the car and take the bits off where the brake light switch is. looks easy to change. the only thing im confused at is that number 20 on the diagram looks like its on the gearbox itself.

The switch is on the gearbox, under the bonnet, nothing to do with the brake switch.
strugers1 is on about the brake light switch.

I think strugers1 is on about the brake pedal light switch (maybe)

which is under the dash..

The reverse light switch is under the bonnet easy 2 unplug the wires remove the switch and fit the new 1

So i was right it is under the bonnet, and i think its the switch i found a bit awkward to get to but easy enough to fit. i thought the reverse light wasn't under the dash.
