Hello,

I was wondering where the sensor on the gearbox is located because I got 2 wires hanging from underneath the car and according to tje wiring diagram it's for the recerse lights.

Thanks for the help

one wire should be Green/Orange and comes from fuse e

the other wire should be Brown/Green and that goes to the reverse lamps to earth

give them a good clean to check the colours as they are very similar (but really won't matter as in the gearbox it only acts as a switch) so ultimately does not matter which wire you attach to the one from the fuse box and the other to the rear lights

one definitely looks green with orange stripe - that should attach to the same colour wire from the fuse box (it will be somewhere so have a good look) the other should be brown with a green stripe that attaches to the same colour wire going to the rear lights

There should be corresponding wires coming out of the body

also they are using bullet connectors and usually the female is the live - so the female from the body should attache to the male on the 'box (also when in reverse that makes the output live and so that is the female connnecting to the male to the rear lights
