While reversing, the rever4sing lights dont work. Have checked 2x reversing bulbs-ok. I have done some research and found it might be back-up switch but cannot find it in engine bay. Please help.
You are right. It could be the back-up switch. It is located somewhere on the transmission or transaxle. A simple 2 wire connected switch, although some vehicles incorporate the back-up switch and the neutral safety switch into a single replaceable unit.
The back-up switch is very simple with a hot wire going in (when key is on), and choosing reverse gear closes the switch so power goes back out the other wire to your back-up lights. Pull off a 2 wire connector on the transaxle. With key on, one wire should be hot. If it is, jumper the connector with a jumper wire. If you pulled off the right switch connector, your back-up lights should be lit. Your neutral safety switch should only have a hot wire when the key is in cranking position. At least, I think so. So be careful jumping connections and have the car run off by itself.
The wiring for the circuit runs from the fuse box to the switch to the back-up lights to ground.
Good luck.

Yes. You can get the MOT station to do the repair or you can try and solve the problem. Check your fuses, the earth connections, your wiring and the voltage at the bulb. It could also be a faulty switch. I hope some of that will help.

The switch is located on the side of the transmission. There is a 2-wire connection, (I believe they are coloured black/orange and red/white. If you unplug the connector and jump the 2 wires together the lights should go on. If they do then the switch is dead, if not there's something else wrong.

On the side of your transmission will be a switch with several wires coming out of it. This is your reverse switch that turns on your reverse lights and most likely needs to be replaced
