Ive been searching all the forums but i cant find anyone that's had a similar problem. I'm pretty sure the owner before me converted the vl to a manual and didn't bother hooking up the reverse switch, i wired the switch to the pink and light green wires on the plug near brake booster but now the reverse lights come on when its in neutral and in all gears..but turns off when in reverse??
im thinking shotty switch but does anyone know if it could possibly be another problem before i track down a switch?

Swap the wires around and it should work.

Swapping the wires was the first thing i tried,along with trying countless other wire combinations..
Fixed it now tho just wired in a 5pin relay to get the power where i needed it (reverse) and at the right time,and no reverse lights in gear or neutral,so its pretty much a switch on a switch ha..dodgy i know but hey got it working and can now get rego.
thanks for your replys guys appreciate it.
