The thread size is M12x1.5.
No, this specific Hella switch is designed for manual transmissions only.
If your reverse lights do not illuminate when you put the car in reverse, the switch is a common component to suspect, along with the bulbs and wiring.
While the examples provide guidance, you must verify that your vehicle's specifications (transmission type, thread size, voltage) precisely match those of the switch before purchasing. Always refer to your vehicle's service manual.
OE-quality means the part is manufactured to meet the same standards and specifications as the original equipment manufacturer's part installed on the vehicle when it was new.
Ensure the electrical connector is securely attached to the new switch. Verify the vehicle's reverse bulbs are functional. Double-check that the switch is correctly installed and compatible with your vehicle's transmission and electrical system. Test the switch's continuity with a multimeter if possible.
The switch may be faulty or incorrectly installed, causing it to remain in a closed position. Remove and inspect the switch for damage or debris. Ensure it is the correct part number and properly seated.
This indicates a faulty seal or damage to the switch body. The switch should be replaced immediately to prevent transmission fluid loss and further damage.
Compatibility Verification: Before purchasing, it is essential to verify that this switch is compatible with your specific vehicle model, year, and transmission type. Check that the thread size is M12x1.5 and that your vehicle operates on a 12V electrical system. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual or a qualified mechanic if you are unsure.
Installation: Installation typically involves accessing the switch, which is usually located on or near the transmission housing. This often requires lifting the vehicle and may involve disconnecting the battery. The old switch is unscrewed, and the new one is screwed in, ensuring a tight seal. The electrical connector should then be reattached. Due to the location and potential need for specialized tools, professional installation by a mechanic is recommended if you are not experienced with automotive repairs.
Care: This is a mechanical and electrical component with no user-serviceable parts. Proper installation and ensuring it is protected from excessive moisture or physical damage are the primary means of care. Regular checks of your reverse lights' functionality can help identify issues early.
