on the switch there is two colours red and yellow

but what colour is the earth etc

i think Darrel had a diagram the other day but cant seem to find it


thanks tom

Lol should it have an earth?!?! Generally speaking a switch has a live and a switched leg which should go to your reversing light which should have an earth on the fitting! If you have a test meter you should easily be able to find the live with the ignition on

Although the glow from a fuse blowing would probably be better to see with than a sj reverse light

Tom mate, I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter.

A switch is usually just a switch... unless it's got a diode built in, which I doubt, it should work either way around mate.
Although to be fair my reverse light switch only has 1 wire lol

Haha sucha nob cause it is only a switch there is no load on it haha thanks guys
just checking if you lot nrw your stuff really hahs

Its not necessarily that the switch is under load, its just that it will probably take the same load whichever way around..

yeah just for some reason i thought that , bit of a blonde moment , and totaly got confused , forgot is was just a normal switch

I think the technical term is that 'its not polarity sensetive'

*sensitive

He knows what I mean!
