    Default vs reverse lights not working...

    Hey, I have just completed a t5 manual conversion on a vs and the reverse lights don't work. I have replaced the reverse light switch and am at a loss as why its not working. Any ideas? Cheers. Luc

    Check this link - it indicates that in most cases on manual transmissions it's the actual switch, so I guess you should test the switch.

    OP may have replaced it with a 2nd hand switch. The link I posted suggests they are a prime fail item and the OP does not say that he has actually checked that the switch works - costs nothing to test, quick and easy.
