Hi, I've just bought a 206 with the LED rear lights. They both work fine except I don't get a reverse light... Is there anything I can do to fix them..
Thanks in advance
Mark

So you have no reversing lights at all? Are you sure that there is bulbs in there?

It's the LED ones so I thought they should be in, and it's on both sides.

LED rear lights dont normally have LED reversing lights, they are normally just standard bulbs.
What lights have you got? A picture will help....

To get to them you nee to unscrew the nut behind the boot carpet.

Same lights as yours but different colour
Has a white bulb in for reverse can easily be bought from any car shop
If new bulb doesn't solve it is possible the plug in the passenger footwell has been disturbed

Its underneath the glovebox, it can accidentally be kicked by passengers

I've just something about the speed sensor being on the same fuse, and when I've just looked round the car it looks like there's been a electrical connector taken off and it's near where the speed sensor is ( the passanger arch) so I think the last person must have had a fault and either blown the fuse and taken the speed sensor off because the reverse lights and speed sensor are on the same fuse. Does anyone know where the speed sensor is and what it look like, because iam sure it will have something to do with that ( there's a bit of burn mark on one of the pins in the connector) thanks
