SOURCE: reverse lights don't work

simple thing first... make sure the bulbs are not burnt out... check the fuse.... then there is a sensor/switch located either on the steering colunm or on the transmission. quick test... put it in reverse and jiggle the shifter... if they come on that takes care of the first two issues....

SOURCE: reverse lights 89 volvo 240 sedan

Hi,
Your brief description doesn't state whether auto/manual? I would be looking at the reverse light switch on the gearbox.
Take the clip off and bridge the connection with a paper clip or similar, keep it away from the vehicle as you will blow a fuse, turn ignition on and bingo, hopefully Blackpool illuminations back of your 240?
Good Luck!
Please remember to rate my effort.

Check instrument panel fuse first. It would be labled on the fuse door or in manual. If not blown i would suspect the dimmer switch. There are to many bulbs in a instrument panel for them all to blow at one time.

SOURCE: car will not shift into gear

Sounds like a linkage/cable to me. Disconnect the linkage at the transmission and move the shift actuator by hand to see if there is the same things happening. Don't try to do this with the engine running unless someone is holding the brake inside the car.

SOURCE: check engine light has come

You must get the error code read for the check engine light in order to get helped here. Bring your vehicle to a local autozone to have your vehicles computer scanned, its free or local shop (most charge for this). Post the codes on fixya for further assistance.

73nova back light stay on

hi,
sounds like your reverse light switch needs adjustment.
most likely a column shifter so up under the dash on top of the steering column near the firewall will be a black switch case in the shape of a "C" that hugs the top of the column, they are adjustable you have to study which screws you loosen, put the car in reverse and key on and get the lights to go on with the shifter in "r" have a helper helps, now tighten switch back down an also check to see if it starts, this switch is a combination neutral safety cut off and reverse light switch. if the nova shifts in the floor the switch is below the console..

I have a acura mdx 2003 and the reverse lights stay on even when it's in drive what do I do?

Replace your reverse light switch . It's more than likely sticky or stuck. It is located on the transmission under the car. Inside the trans. Some cars have them in the shift linkage area in the shifter console . You didn't specify if auto or manual trans.

I have a 2007 Pontiac G5 which will not go completely into the park position (automatic) which will not allow the key to completely shut off and be removed, meaning the lights stay on. Will start and...

typically your problem is in the column. That's for cars that have the shifter on the column. What's happening is the gears aren't lining up to put the shifter in the park position. Unless mechanically inclined you'll have to take into a shop.

Need to locate backup light switch on 1988 chevy 1500

I had the same problem. My backup lights wouldn't come on in when I put the auto. trans. shifter into the Reverse position. They WOULD come on briefly as I moved the shifter from Park position into Reverse, but would go off again when the shifter reached the Reverse detent. I got the solution from the Haynes service manual, in which the relevant switch is referred to as something like the neutral safety switch. Check on top of the steering column close to the firewall. Set the parking brake, then move the auto. trans. shifter into Neutral position. Get under the dash and rotate the neutral safety switch clockwise as far as it will go. Then move the shifter into the Park position, and your switch should be set. If the backup lights don't come on now when the shifter is put into Reverse position with the ignition switch 'on', there may be another problem.
