fuse for reverse lights?
« on: 14 February 2014, 12:39 »
As some know i shorted a wire when testing my light for the front cig. So my front drivers main light dont work (dim works) rear pas side  brake light popped and now my reverse lights dont work. But the cig is getting hot and the light for the cig works. I tried finding the fuse for it but no luck. I will try bridging it today when the rain stops.
Does anyone know which fuse is for the rear lights?

I took the fuse out and its ok. So i found only 1 switch on the gearbox, but its not at the front but behind the box by the turbo. Its a 3pin switch. So i bridged them from the blue/grey to the brown/grey, ignition was on i put it into reverse and no lights so i bridged from blue/brown to black/grey it arked so i knew i poped the fuse. Checked it and it defo did pop. I will check the bulbs again and see if they are blown. :angry:
