Hi all,
I've always used MSC as a place to see what other people are up to with their Micra's and to check out everyones Micra, so only just recently, i've decided to sign up to MSC myself.
I'm posting this thread to see if anyone can help me!?
I've had my Micra (N red 1996, 5dr) for just under 2 years now, and there been the odd problem, which i've fixed. But my recent problem is my reverse light. Before, when in reverse, my light would come on fine. About 3 weeks ago, when i pop it into reverse, there's no light, so i gave the gear stick a wobble, and the light came on. About a week ago, the reverse light stopped working. So i swapped the bulb over wit ha fully working bulb, but still, no light. Still, to this day, my reverse light wont come on, even when i wobble the gear stick or even change the bulb.
I once saw a post on here that there's a switch or clip, that when the gear stick is in reverse, it flicks the switch to turn the reverse light on. Is this true?
I've thought about wiring the reverse light to the cigarette lighter with a toggle switch in between for the time being, but i'd rather fix the main problem and for it to not fail its MOT.
Can anyone shine some light on this issue and guide me into the right direction so i can fix this. My car is up for its MOT in 2 months and don't want it to fail because the reverse light wont come on.
Thanks, John
