Where is the reverse switch on my J reg Escort XR3I convertible?
I went to the Ford Garage the other day and purchased a switch for my J reg Escort Convertible, I have looked in a Haynes manual which tells me the switch is screwed into back of the gearbox but I cant find anything that remotlely looks like the one I was sold. The one I have is a long metal thing with some sore of bearing in the end and has a plastic "Toblerone" type connector. Was I sold the wrong thing, or am I just stupid???
Try having a look at the gear change linkage under the car. You may find it directly under the gear stick, under the car. Also have a look under the rubber boot that covers the gear stick shaft in the car.
