Ducato Reversing switch

[Erc1958]

Hi, can anyone help me locate the reversing switch on a 2001 motorhome with a Ducato chassis. One of the previous owners has replaced the reversing lights with LED type which do not come on when reverse gear is selected.
Cheers

Could just be the bulbs, there are lots of overdriven chinese junk leds about. Switch is On top of the gearbox, remove the intake hoses to access, you need a deep socket I think its 21mm or 22mm to remove. I've had two ducatos where the reverse switch was iffy and a new one didn't fix the issue, I ended up grinding a few mm off the brass base so that it fitted further into the box, problem solved.

Thanks for your help, I think I have located the switch, just a case of getting it out now.
Thanks again, much appreciated
