Ok so the car did this once before, the reverse warning sound (the *beep* *beep* *beep*) is stuck and also the reverse lights are stuck. The car drives fine, switches gears fine, handles fine, revs fine, etc... but the reverse beep is stuck and the reverse lights are stuck ( I removed the bulbs) but the beep is driving me insane whenever I use the car.

Any idea what could the problem be? Anyone know where the reverse sensor is?

There are two sensors on the driver's side of the box.....if you drive on the RH side lol.....it is the one furthest forward from memory. The switch will either be stuck on inside or the wires are bare and touching. You only have to touch the two wires together and it will do what you are describing. I would guess it's the wiring and not the sensor as usually people do a half arsed job in that department and the sensors are a pretty basic operation

Well this car was converted to LH drive... >_< so the wiring is something I was looking into fixing in the future when I do a wire tuck inside the engine bay was also going to have my mechanic fix all the half assed job of relocating the relay box and wiring. If you could provide me with a picture of what you're talking about I'd be very grateful. :) (this sound is driving me nuts)

Thanks!

You don't need a picture, there are two sensors poking out the side of the box, then the speedo. If you actually look, you will see it. Difficult to get to from under the car but you may have to drop the gearbox crossmember to lower the box to gain access to the switch. Trust me, look and you will see it
