Chris Rogers Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Hi Guys, Trying to fit 12s aux electrics to my TD5 110 with the Genuine kit Have had the panel off under the cubby box, but just cant find the connector for the reverse light! What's the best way to locate it? Anyone got a piccy? The kit I've got breaks into the switch cable using the black plugs. I'm guessing someones tucked the wiring nicely out of the way so I cant find it! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diesel_jim Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 As you look down through the top (where the cubby box would be), look to the left side of the gearbox, about 1/2 way down. should be screwed into the side of the casing, about 1" diameter nut thing with 2 wires and a plug. it's probably hidden under the 2 ECU loom cables, as they run in virtually the same plain (plane?) level...

TheHarv Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 These shows the wire (green) + connector on my NA 110 (white wire is the handbrake light) You may need to fish around in the top corner above the gearbox, possibly it is tucked in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Rogers Posted August 23, 2008 Author Share Posted August 23, 2008 Here it is with the gearbox out.... many thanks for that, after much swearing and groping i managed to find the connector, cabletied and hidden in the most in accessible place possible! But have managed to the the loom connected to it, so happy days! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archaeology_student Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Thank you for this post! Spent too much time trying to figure out where mine was hidden on my 1997 Discovery with the R380! Now that I know where it is, getting to it is the tricky part... talk about no room! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatslicer Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Take up the floor panel, it only needs a few bolts undoing to lift off. Best to take up the passenger side so you have access to the right area. Just taking off the gear box cowling wont give enough work access.

Snagger Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Don't throw away failed switches - they're perfect for use as flywheel locking tools for timing belt swaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
