Reverse switch location?
Hello all, I just ordered a back-up switch from JPAM Porsche/Jaguar. I know the switch is located on the trasmission (in my case a 5spd) I was just wanting to know exactly where?Also is it accessable without a 3-elbowed arm?
It will be nice to have reverse lights and my rear park alert system working again.
Thank you!

Does not look to bad to get to. I have some really long extensions and deep well sockets as well.
Dennis, thank you for looking. I could not find anything on it other than the torque spec info. I am most appreciative of the information this forum willingly devouches.
Thank you again everyone!

Just my tuppence. . . But you need to note the space is a bit tight and its easier with closed end spanner than a socket because there is an engine mount almost inline with it above. Also as I discovered the plastic can be very brittle on the cable connector but it is still a snug fit even if the plastic lock lug breaks off. I know this as I changed it on my 2.5 manual today as part of servicing. Hadnt worked for a year so well overdue being replaced. Only £7 odd for the switch too.

Finding a Reverse Light Switch Part
Thanks for all of the great info. on installing a new reverse light switch. However, I am still looking for the part itself because I don't want to pay $125 (that's what my local mechanic told me it would cost him to get it from the dealer). I've seen online parts for around $10! Does anyone have a resource for me? I'm in the US in Minnesota. Even with shipping, it seems like it would be less expensive to buy it from the UK....

Yeah, even though it's a frequent ford part it doesn't seem to be available on ebay in the states. Unless it's called something else than "reverse light switch" over there
Otherwise you can get it from here at about a fourth of the price incl. shipping
