CDT Auto, How to fix failed reverse lights
Dear all
I just repaired some failed reversing lights. Symptoms: I have never had the 'red light' by the auto box selector Reversing lights suddenly failed Investigation: Corroded light cluster contacts on male cable end and female cluster ends all bulbs working and in good condition Fuse 23 intact Method: Replaced fuse 23 with spare from in car. No change. Fully cleaned connections by abrasion and alcohol. No change. Tested voltage to lights. Good 4.5 to 7V. Did research and replaced Relay L4. No change. Re-inspected fuse 23. Found to have corroded blade contacts. Replaced with brand new. Lights working...and red light next to selector back! TLDR: Conclusion Check ALL voltages FIRST then the fuse replace with new only regard a fuse as okay if it is pristine, even if intact Hope that helps some folk. Paul.
