Where is the reverse light switch located?
1 Answers
The reverse light switch is located on the transmission. The reverse lights do not need to be manually turned on; they will automatically activate when the car is shifted into reverse gear. The working principle of the reverse lights is as follows: when the car is reversing, shifting into reverse gear mechanically presses down the switch contacts, closing the circuit and turning on the reverse lights. When the reverse gear is disengaged, the switch contacts spring back, opening the circuit and turning off the reverse lights. Precautions for reversing include: 1. Adjust the interior rearview mirror properly; 2. Pay attention to both side mirrors; 3. Control the speed; 4. Stop and wait if there are pedestrians or oncoming vehicles; 5. Use the reversing camera to accurately judge distances.
