Reverse Light Switch

[Turlock]

Hi,

I've been scowering the internet looking for the location of the reverse light switch on my R33 GTS-T (RB25DET). The lights don't always come on so I suspect the switch is faulty but I don't have a clue where to find it/get to it...

Any help greatly appreciated!!!

Cheers

Its on the side of the gearbox about half way along, drivers side at the same level as the filler plug. Has two wires going into it

It works on continuity so just check it with a DMM. They are often difficult to unscrew for removal so CRC it heavily.

Thanks a million for the reply

How exactly do I get to it, do I jack it up or go through the engine bay? Sorry for the noob question but I've never gone near a gearbox before

you have to jack the car up - make sure the car is SECURE on AXLE STANDS before getting under it. never ever ever trust your life to a jack.

drivers side, halfway along the box, right at the top is where it is on the R33. There is a neutral switch and a reversing switch. The reversing switch is the one that's harder to get to, of course

You can get in there with a ring spanner if you disassemble the plug (pull your new reversing switch's plug apart so you can see how to do it). I was lucky enough to be able to do mine with the gearbox in place, others have had to loosen the gearbox crossmember or drop the gearbox and push it over to one side.
