Hey, im pretty new to this so help me out please, ive searched the forums and i still didnt find the answer. My reverse lights dont come on when im reversing? i checked the BCKUP fuse... its seems to be fine, switched it and it still doesnt work. What else should i do? Thanks

 

Theres a switch in the reverse system. Mine went bad. The dealership replaced it under warrenty. So thats all I really know. Maybe someone else can help describe where it is, or howo to fix it. Or just take it in to the dealership

 

Its on the transmition somewhere,
Mine was on the top, I have the 06, with the MU3 Tranny.
So depends on what tranny you have, might be above the
driveshaft on the left side.
Mine also wore out and needed replacement.

 

change the bulbs

 

Probably not.

My reverse switch has gone out twice since i bought mine in march 07.

Swing by the dealer, they can fix it pretty quick.

 

same as everyone else, its the switch box near the transmission, mine went after 25,000km

 

check the bubs

 

Reverse switch for sure - on top of tranny - had to replace mine soon after I got the car

 

So thats wat it is..... Mine went out so I changed the bulbs (they where still good but changed anyway) checked the fuse too and nothing so I left it alone then a few days later it started working again by them selfs

 

just make sure you get them checked out by the dealership. You could be trying to reverse, not knowing the lights dont work and start to back up...someone doesnt see the lights and you hit them.

 

I just replaced mine. pretty simple to do... the switch is about 35 bucks or so any way you have to move your fuse box in the engine bay and its straight down you will have to squeeze your hand in there and have to move a hose a little outta the way and there will be a plug. undo the plug and you will see a black oval shaped female connector... you will need a 7/8 deep socket so it can slide over the plastic connector part and reach the metal nut... it took me about 20 min or so..
Hope this helps

 

Anybody have a part # for this switch?

2005 ss s/c

 

i think my car had the same problem too. glad that i see this thread before heading out to the dealer.

 

Mine haven't worked in three years. Lol

 

Got the part # for the 05 SS not sure about other years 24459626 lists for $17.49

 

mine dont work =/ its the switch =/

my turn signal dont work either (just front dont work) my parking lights dont come on. but they come on when i have the headlights on. bulbs arent bad and the headlights (projectors) arent bad either. i heard maybe a switch? what do you htinkk??

 

this, when I take it to get it inspected I just bang reverse gear really hard to get it to turn on for the moment =-D

 

It is really easy to replace the switch. U will need a long extension, and a 22mm deep socket. I never moved the fuse box out of the way. I just wiggled my hand down in there to pull the plug on and off the switch.

 

Man I don't even use my back up lights lol

 

ive got 1 that doesnt work even after bulb replacement

 

my rear turn signals stopped working 2 days apart. the running lights still work. I havent checked it out yet and I get nervous everytime a cop is behind me. I believe the third brake light still works

 

I don't have inspection. Thank God lol

 

lucky bastard

 

Five percent tint, catless downpipe....lol

 

Could someone take a quick picture of where this switch is? I'm sure it is right in front of me but I can't find it.
