Reverse Switch

[Ian C70T5]

When putting in reverse it takes a wiggle of the gearstick to make the reverse lights stay on. any ideas? where is the reverse switch?

Apart from the No.2, there's a flat module beneath the lever (at the gearbox) which detects the position of the gear selector. Upon opening it up, there are 3 copper contact held by springs to perform some logics to identify which gear your at. The copper contacts could have been worn off and they're not touching the circuitry inside. Get a machine shop to mill these for you and you'll solve this. I faced this much early and both the reverse lamp weren't functioning. You need an assortment of normal tools for the job and it can be DIY.
