Hello there, I have a problem.

The wires that connect to the neutral and reverse switch in the gearbox of my R32GTS4 (same and an R32GTR) are missing. This means that my reverse lights don't come on when I am reversing which is an issue fo rego. I can't really see where the wires are meant to go; though I am guessing that they join the engine loom somewhere around the alternator. I need help can anyone

a. confirm where these wires connect to the loom

b. confirm which wires in the loom connect to which wires on the switches

Thanks, Ben 0411 243 284.

Dude i Have the same problem , ever since i got my clutch replaced i have had not reverse lights, Could you please post up a pic so i can see where the wires run from to the switch so i can fix mine, this would be awesome if you could help.

Hi Zardo, I have attached a picture from the R32GTR workshop manual with the reverse switch circled. I am guessing that they have forgotten to plug yours in properly when they put the gearbox back. I can't tell you exactly where the wires are going because that is my question. I think my wires got caught up on my front driveshaft and got pulled out. I have the switches, but don't know where they are going. If you get under your car to check that your switches are plugged in, maybe you could take a look at where the wires are going and what colour wires plug into your reverse switch?

This picture is pretty self explanitory after you have taken a look under your car. Essentially the neutral and reverse switches are located near the top of the driver's side of your gear box. If you get under the car and locate the front drive shift coming from the gearbox you will notice that these are just above there - quite difficult to get your hands to!

Thanks. Also, if its possible while you are down there; can you please tell me what colour wires on the car side of the connectors are plugging into the a. neutral switch and b. revese switch (or a. the switch on the rear side of the car and b. switch on the front side of the car)? It woudl be a massive help as I have nothing at all there!

These are the wires that I have hanging out which I assume are for the neutral and reverse switches. Can anyone confirm that these should be them. Not that this picture is of the driver's side of the engine under the plenum, you can see the alsternator in the back.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
