Yes, from a 3A before 1960. Yes, later switch will work fine, just add suitable terminals to the wire.tdskip said:1) This very early crash box (possible from a TR3A even) has a different style connector that the later cars. Can it be replaced with a later sensor?
It depends, it was in different locations for different years; and some simply did not have a place for it. In Geo's photo above, you can see the blank spot where the reverse switch would be, if that cover were drilled & tapped for a reverse switch. But some later covers had it on top near the shift lever, and some had it on the LH side.TonyPanchot said:Where is the switch location for the reverse lamps ?
A "reversing lamp" was listed as a factory option (tho not a very popular one it seems, and possibly deleted from later option lists. And TR2-early TR3 did have the reverse switch hole drilled, tapped and capped with a brass plug.Don Elliott said:There is no switch for the back-up lights on the TR3A because there are no back-up lights.
TR3driver said:Don't forget that the two switches are wired in parallel, meaning you need two ground wires (one for each switch).
Sorry for the confusion, Tom. Either way will work fine; the ground for one switch can either be daisy-chained to the other switch (as the book shows) or wired directly to ground.tdskip said:The wiring diagrams appear to show the grounds connected between the switches, and then a ground to transmission or body coming from the second switch? Randall, are you saying each switch should have a separate ground?
