|
|
I know i've already been down this road on this forum but i'm still having difficulty with the reverse lights. I've tested the relay to the best of my knowledge with a test light by running it from the 50A connection to the RF connection and no lights on the test light, but it is going into reverse when selected. Is there a fuse of some kind somewhere that I have looked over? I'm using this wiring guide. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/wiring/baybus_76_supplement.jpg _________________ 1976 Type II Westy P22

First verify that fuse S12 is good. If good. Pull the cover off the shifter and check for power in (15) and out (RF) of the switch. |

I've connected a test light across those pins and it did not light up the lights. I'm going to check them a bit more this evening. Looking at the fuse my brake lights and horn work fine and I believe they are on the same fuse. _________________ 1976 Type II Westy P22

looking at that wiring diagram does it jump from fuse 12 to fuse 11? _________________ 1976 Type II Westy P22
