Reversing light switch.

Does anyone know where the reversing light switch is - is it on the box or on the shift lever. Need to get a feed from it to trip my reversing camera and trying to make up my mind whether to run a cable from the back along with the video cable and connect to the reversing lamps or take it from...

The reverse light switch is in the gearbox on passenger side of bow.

Thanks for the info. I have no PNDR12 illumination so I take it both are linked via something ! Is there a fuse , relay or control box somewhere ?

I dont have an Auto, Have you checked both fuse Boxes in cab/under bonnet..... someone with an Auto on here im sure will know....... But i did find this on another Forum.....
The reversing lights are fed from the gauge fuse, in the dash board to the right of the steering wheel. The auto gear switch for lights etc is under the vehicle and joins the wiring loom in a couple of connectors above the starting motor. Mine is a petrol model. If the in dash lights follow what gear the trans is in the switch should be ok. I spent some time trying to find connectors at the front of the vehicle to connect the reverse trigger wire for a reverse camera - gave up and wired it from the wire near the reverse light.......... Good luck

There is a control box above the brake pedal.

When I converted my 1991 81 I used the auto wiring to work with the manual reverse feed and that wire is in the area by the starter motor.

When I go into reverse, the dash reverse light is illuminated and I still have the reverse beeper working with it.
