Hi all,
Can anyone tell me IF a 73 Kombi had functioning reverse lights. there is the clear lense in the rear lights which is for reverse BUT would they have
been operating or should they operate on selection of reverse gear.
thanks
Bert

Apparently there is also a switch and if the gear lever is not engaged fully then the contact is not activated and of course the lights no come on.
check there is a switch on the gearbox i know my 1600 gearbox had a switch on the gearbox and it was a 72 so a 73 should!!!
pretty straight forward wiring
cheers

Oh good ya got it.
My reverse lights sometimes come on even when the reverse gear isn't properly engaged. I know this because reverse is hard to get in and I
discovered that I couldn't use the light as an indicator (ie - an indicator of whether the car was in gear or not, not a turn signal indicator).
Gotta try to move; grinding noise, try again!
Mine's a '74.
Cheers.
