No Reverse Lights

[neostagea]

hey, i have just picked up a 33 ser 2 gts-t. i have no reverse lights, i checked the globes and these are fine. i checked all my fuses and these are all fine.

it has a short shift kit installed (unsure of which brand) does this have any impact on the reverse sensor in the gearbox?? has anyone had to replace the reverse sensor if this is my problem

any help would be appreciated.

thanks Brad

hey man, my mate has an series 2 gts-t with the same prob. his reverse globes are fine, but when its in reverse the lights flash on and off....he worked it out to be a problem with the gearstick or whatever sensor controls the lights...when he's reversing if he holds the gear stick forward just a tiny bit the lights go on, but if he lets it sit right down where it does naturally they go off....sounds similar to yours...

if you work out how to fix it post back here and i'll let him know

I think the sensor is near the top of the gearbox so it's going to be pretty hard getting to it.

i've got a short shifter in my 32 (not sure if the lights are triggered exactly the same) but it has no effect on the reverse lights.

I have the exact same problem with my R32 GTS-T. Did a search and found this thread.

I found that if I hold the gear firmly into reverse - the lights come on.

If I let it sit in reverse as normal - they dont come on.

Did anyone end up finding a solution?

It's the sensor on your gearbox. You need to get it replaced. The sensor is right near the top of the gearbox and it would be pretty hard to get to if you don't have a hoist.

Oh ok. Thanks Adam
