Reversing lights don't stay on
K9Jim:
greetings.
i have spoken to my local landy man :D
this is a very common problem, it is not always the reverse switch. there is an adjustment that needs doing to the gear stick itself, it just needs moving over a slightly. i am not exactly sure how this is done but i will find out for us all. :wink:

Thanks Jimboy, I haven't done anything about mine yet so I'm all ears.

I hardly ever notice them not working. When I really need them I just pull back on the gear lever a bit more to keep the on. Is this good enough to pass the MOT do you think, or will I have to fix it by then?

By law you do not need reversing lights for an MOT but the police check them when they pull you over

whilst we are on the issue of reverse lights what do i need to do to stop the lights coming on when i put it in 1st and 2nd gears 200tdi (LT77 G/Box ??)
is it a matter of just adjusting the switch or something else
TimM:
Possibly/probably,
The swtich on yours is adjustable, try unscrewing it a little.
