What is the Backup Light Switch all about?

Backup lights serve two purposes. First, they provide warning for other drivers and/or pedestrians behind you that your car is in reverse. Second, they provide some illumination if you’re reversing in the dark. Turning backup lights on is the responsibility of the backup light switch, which is mounted under the hood, generally on the transmission. When you put the gear selector into reverse, the switch sends a signal to the reverse lights. When the gear selector leaves reverse, the switch turns the lights off.

While backup light switch failure is relatively rare, it does happen. However, just because your backup lights don’t work doesn’t mean that the switch is faulty. There could be a problem with the wiring, the bulbs, the switch or another component in the system.

Keep in mind:

Backup lights should be checked during normal maintenance when the mechanic tests your headlights, taillights, and brake lights.
Backup light switch failure can be caused by many other problems, so a professional diagnosis is recommended.

How it's done:

The back up light switch is verified that it needs to be replaced. The vehicle is then lifted and supported on jack stands.
The defective back up light switch is disconnected and removed from the transmission.
The new back up light switch is installed into the transmission and tightened to correct specifications.
The back up light switch is connected and tested for operation by shifting the vehicle into reverse.
The jack stands are removed and the vehicle is tested to ensure proper operation of the back up light switch

Our recommendation:

It’s a legal requirement to have working backup lights. They’re convenient, as well as a safety feature for pedestrians and drivers behind your car. If your backup lights are no longer functioning, have the system fully inspected by one of our expert mechanics. It may be the switch, but it could also be a problem with the wiring, which can require significant time to diagnose.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Backup Light Switch?

Reverse lights don’t work
Reverse lights only work intermittently
Reverse lights stay on all the time

How important is this service?

Without operational backup lights, pedestrians and other drivers behind your car will not know you’re about to back up, which can cause accidents and serious injuries. Have any malfunctions of backup light operations professionally diagnosed as soon as possible.

Hyundai Genesis V6-3.8L - Spark Plugs - Redmond, Washington

This is my first time using this service. I priced around with the local shops, the dealer, and this site. The pricing was about $100 cheaper in average here and all my friends were curious (A.K.A. they wanted me to be the guinea pig). I'm always apprehensive talking to mechanics; I will have to say that Robert was a true professional. He also made me feel very comfortable and felt that I could trust him right away. Not many people make me feel like that. Great people skills. He was very prompt and communicated very well on appointment schedule and expectations. As for the technical mechanic aspect, it was mind blowing. I really appreciate that I could go onto this site and know that Robert is available to fix my car for anything. Yes, I will definitely use this again and yes, I will ask for Robert Mischka. I have full trust that the job will be done right, clean, efficient, and with detail. No, he didn't need to leave my engine cleaner than he found it but I appreciate it very much as a detailed person myself. lol I know everyone has some type of placebo feeling after getting something replaced or fixed but that isn't this case. I know for a fact and monitored performance, shakes, noises, and feel of the car for the duration of ownership. After Robert was done, the car feels great! Super quiet, shakes are gone, no more cold start noises, and better performance and consistency. It's magic when a mechanic touches your car and everything is nice and better than you've ever had it. I know spark plugs will also help a lot but Robert made the whole experience trusting, easy, professional, and amazing. He has skills! Thank you so much!

Pierre is thorough, hard-working, polite, responsive – and a VERY GOOD mechanic. I'm always happy when he comes to handle the job. I have confidence in his work. He's able to think through a problem and not accept it at face value. His diagnostic skill is good.
