2008 1.8 petrol manual Vectra
I am fitting a reversing sensor kit to my Vectra. I have failed to get a Haynes manual locally. Can anyone kindly tell me the colour code for the reversing light lead?

White/Black from memory. Easy enough to follow back from the bulb / cluster to multi plug to check.

Thanks. White/black shows 12v with reversing lights on.

Reversing sensors fitted, job done. Took 12v feed and earth from harness  behind the bumper, a little tidier than last time I fitted one. It will  make parking at Tesco's easier; I admire the way the housewives look in their door mirrors and slip tidily into their parking bays.

I must be going to the wrong Tescos :o


Most parking in supermarket carparks would make for a good comedy montage: in, out, move over 3microns, back in again, bump the car behind, pull out, check that it's not pushed either bumper in more than 10cm, in, out, move over another 3 microns, in, call the AA because there's now a burning smell that can't be the clutch as she was using only half the available revs. That's just what you you see walking to the door.

Clearly a higher calibre of housewife to be found in Midsomer Norton.  :)
