reverse light switch

[ADRay]

bounced over to working on the electrical issues at the moment, specifically the new reverse lamp switch I installed. Originally, I set it similarly to the old one when it was on the bench, and it didn't work.

I'm trying to reinstall it per instructions from Mini Forum (see pic) but I've found that it bottoms out in the port on the side of the gear change case without engaging the switch button.


Ive tested it with a test light and battery and it's functional.

Anyone have this issue before?
