Reverse lights following manual conversion


Recommended Posts

Got MOT coming up end of this month.

Converted my Glanza from Auto to Manual. The connector for reverse light was different on the manual box.

How can I get it to work? Do I need to source a connector from a manual box and switch it over on the loom or is there a way to spade the connectors together?

Many Thanks

Not part of the test...... yet. Get it tested before may and you'll have 12month to fix it. 

Wow, well I didn't know one. Nice one pal!  Yeah, I'd like to get it sorted for safety reasons anyway.

Do you know if the horn is part of the test?

we just put some "spades" on the two reverse switch wires and plugged them into the automatic harness.

i dont have MOT here, but its been that way from 2006 and no issues really

aah okay, that makes sense mate. is it two pins on the harness or just the one?

Yes horn needs to work. 

aah damn, I've got pre-face lift model and the horn is like a mechanical button whilst the hub I've used uses a wired connection. 

I think I read somewhere that yellow wire under dash is the horn?

Yellows are usually airbag wires. Best let  a sparky sort that if your not confident enough. 

Ah right, well I used hate wiring/electronics but I can do basic things like that. Will just need to confirm which wire beeps horn.

its two pins...you have to use the correct ones, as the automatic harness has a few wires/pins to it
