Slavvy 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 Thought this was worth a shot I'm dealing with a 1974 merc 250, automatic, and the reverse lights arent working. Voltage is reaching the fuse but not the lights so I'm assuming the reverse light switch is broken. So I pulled apart the shifter and, lo and behold, there's no reverse light switch there...it seems it is located on the trans somewhere (in my experience, automatic bmw's have the switch around the base of the selector lever). Can anyone tell me what it looks like/what I should look for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*Glenn* 855 Report post Posted November 14, 2009 The reverse light switch is built into the inhibitor switch on the L/H side of the gearbox. I dont have the wiring diagram at home though. Can give it to you on Monday. Ph (09) 2722546 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
