I noticed earlier today that the reversing lights were switched on when the Astra was in gear and moving forward; they went out when the ignition was switched off. My assumption is that the switch attached to the gearbox is sticking.
I understand that reversing lights are not an MoT-able item so I am prepared to wait a few months until the car goes in for its next service before I can get it fixed but, in the meantime, I need to somehow inactivate those lamps. What would be the best way to do this?
I could take the bulbs out, but it might be easier if I could simply take the fuse out, though the snag with that is that the owner's manual does not identify which fuse is the appropriate one.
Anyone got any ideas?
Oh yes, something else - would the removal of a couple of bulbs or the fuse (if I could find it) upset the rest of the canbus electrics?
Many thanks H
