Default r/h reversing light

2004 coupe, the r/h reversing light wont come on, the l/h one does, have tried, globe ok. earth connection and continuity ok, have no voltage to the rear r/h joiner plug, I now wish to check the circuit and voltage at the illumination control module harness connector, but I cant find it ,can any one tell me where it is situated??? this is a r/h drive car but it may be in the same place as the l/h drive car. thanks saltiga

The illumination control module is part of the headlight switch and the fuse block. Being a r/h drive it's most likely on the side of the dashboard panel on the driver's side. On your car it should opposite of this picture

Can this also be my problem for mine (manual transmission). What does this module look like? I just see only the fuse box and headlight switch

The fuse box and headlight switch IS the ICM ( Illumination Control Module ).

Thanks ala_xfire and robby363.

Do you happen to know the fuse number for that reverse light? Onehundred80 sent me the service manual link and i will be looking through it for reference.

Thanks

cojoman, So far I have found that the manual I have (on a cd) says. right hand back up light is fed from fuse 4 the l/h/ back up light is fed from fuse 3 . these are located in the illumination control module. This is the fusel board located on the end of the dash board left hand end for l/h/drive cars and on the r/h end of the dash board for r/h/drive cars, the r/h/drive cars (which is what I have) only uses one fuse for the both (no 12 from memory ) The circuit diagram for the lights does not show the reversing light switch which is mounted on the top of the gear box, so I have disregarded this circuit. I have gone no further as to get to this switch I have to work out how to? I find it hard to believe there would be 2 separate supply's to the reversing lights on the r/h/drive cars as this would mean either 2 reversing switches or a double contact switch. I actually have disregarded this circuit diagram, I think my fault is an open circuit from the reversing switch to the r/h light.. I have been looking at a spare wheel as I am not too happy with out one ( it can be a long wait for a tow truck to come out in the middle of woop-woop) so far I have found the v/w golf mark 5,6,7 fit I have had the centre bore machined out and the wheel fits perfectly, I have tried it and have driven with it on the front so far and every thing is ok can use my existing studs ok brakes are not effected, (should not be as there is only about 10mm difference in diameter) next it to try the rear But that will be next week.. Also it so far complies for track, weight designation, in the Australian design rules Sorry I cant be of any better help .( I have chases a Mercedes space saver wheel in Australia whith no luck I could import one FROM THE USA OR England IF I DID WHAT DO I DO IF IT DOES NOT FIT ALSO THE COST IS QUITE EXPENSIVE( saltiga

Thanks. I am still looking at mine. I will wait to get another hand to help out on this. I am thinking i have a bad wire somewhere but you never know. I checked all the fuse and everything seem to be good.
