I was under the mini today and noticed a sensor on the front right coming from the sump, its not connected to anything but it has the two connectors for something? Any ideas? Electrical temp sensor? guessing.... Cheers, meehal. |

What he said^^^ - power supply in - lead out to reversing light When reverse is selected the power is supplied to the globe which has the other side earthed. + _____________/ ________--globe--______ _ earth |

You can wire up your indicators to act reversing lights. You need 3 diodes (4 if you want to use both indicators - separate supply to each side - don't loop a wire from one globe to the other or both sides will flash) (1N400*) will do - anything over 1N4001 is overkill but will do the job) wire one into each supply lead to the globe + ---->|---- globe---earth |

Later cars used dual filament globes in the indicators. On filament for flash the other for reveres. It gives you a slightly pale amber reverse light but better than nothing. Tim |
