Hello,

Finally getting around to getting the car back on the road after a layup of a few years.

I have a problem with the reversing light being continuously illuminated irrespective of the gear that is selected. Can anyone tell me if the reversing light switch is easy to get to? Can it be accessed by removing the centre console or does the car need to be raised to get to it?

Cheers,

Gav

which gearbox will probably be the first question, LT77 or T5.

I'm ears if it's the rover as I'm trying to find mine too!

I think its the LT77 (reverse position top left) (early 4.3 Chim)

Cheers,

if its the rover gearbox, it is easy to access from under the car on the side of the gearbox (2 wires going to it), the switch mat have worked loose.

I think most of the TVR's have bullet connectors to the reverse switch and a big round connector (3pins but only 2 used IIRC) to the speedo drive so easy to tell apart wink

Not the cleanest gearbox you've ever seen.....

You don't need reverse lights for the MOT do you?
If not and you need to prioritise just take the bulbs out for now.
