Reverse on Auto Box
« on: 29 July 2013, 14:40:07 »

Have recently noticed that when I select reverse sometimes the reversing lights and parking sensors are not activated!
Can anybody give instructions on how/if this is adjustable?
Note reverse gear is engaged OK

It'll probably be the selector switch starting to play up. Might be worth removing it and giving it a clean before it starts affecting the gearbox function as well.
