Sparky-tus are you there?

Who can help with a sparky problem?
My reversing lights on 146 will not come on!!!!!

The fuses are checked and ok
The bulbs cahecked and ok
Bulb board checked and ok

So far so good. The reverse lamp switch on the gear box has two wires. One Green and the other Green and brown. The Green is LIVE and Green and Brown is not????

On my other Maestro, 209 both wires are live.

Should both wires in 146 be live? At the rear in 146 both wires and connections are dead

Is it the switch at fault? or is there something staring me in the face?

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP :confused::confused:

Cheers

pull the wires of the reverse switch put a split pin across the two wires to the reverse switch

if the lights work its the switch at fault

hope this helps
