12v (battery voltage) one side of the switch, then when the switch is engaged it puts 12v on the other side of the switch, putting the reverse light on.
Is your's an iB5 or MTX box?
When I put the car in reverse or am reversing the car and the clutch is near the floor the light isn't on but if I raise my foot up it reaches a point where the light works. Put my foot down again slightly and light goes off again. It's weird.
I believe it's an iB5 as its a modified 1.8 blacktop from Ford.
