Part: Reverse gear switch
Operation: How to change the Ford Focus reverse switch

The reverse switch is unlikely to fail, but if it does it is easy to replace. This device is a small internal switch that activates the reverse light whenever it is selected automatically. It is connected to the electrical system, so before proceeding with the complete replacement of the piece it is advisable to check the various electrical connections, fuses and cables; immediately after checking the bulb that it is not burned out. Well, let's lock the car with the handbrake and open the hood. We remove the battery and its holder. Now before removing the 6 bolts from the bracket above the gearbox, let's help ourselves with a jack and a wooden board to hold the gearbox up. After identifying the switch connector, disconnect it and proceed to replace it with the new spare part. Let's put everything back together.
