Reverse light Wiring Colour

Postby chavva » Fri Jul 31, 2009 2:09 pm

Hi,
Anybody tell me which colour the wire is for the reversing light? I'm fitting parking sensors and I need to splice a feed from the sensor box into the reverse light wire. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm having a ' mare. :banghead Thanks!!

Ulrich,
Thanks for the reply, however the sensors need to be wired to the reverse light so that they only activate when you put the car in reverse(i.e they only get power when the reverse light illuminates). i hope this makes sense and would appreciate if anyone can give me the heads up.
Thanks again :conf

According to several forums:

In the black connector: Right side (driver side): pin 2, left side: pin 3.

You can still take from the cluster... Just trace from the reverse bulb to the correct wires....

The black connector connects to the cluster! You can't open the cluster, so the connector is the easiest way to connect your wire to.
