Vemo V95-73-0006 Switch, reverse light

Vemo V95-73-0006 Switch – Reverse Light

The Vemo V95-73-0006 is a high‑performance reverse light switch designed to provide reliable illumination during vehicle reverse operations. Engineered with precision, this component ensures that the rear lights activate automatically when the gear selector engages the reverse position, enhancing safety for both driver and surrounding traffic.

Key Features

• Dual‑pole construction: The switch incorporates two electrical contacts to handle the forward and reverse signals efficiently. This design guarantees a clean, flicker‑free operation of the rear lighting system.
• Robust build quality: Manufactured with durable materials that resist corrosion, vibration, and temperature extremes commonly encountered in automotive environments.
• Compact footprint: The compact size allows easy integration into tight engine bay spaces without compromising airflow or accessibility for maintenance.
• Universal compatibility: While originally specified for certain models such as the Mitsubishi and Volvo manual transmission vehicles, the switch’s standardized pin layout makes it suitable for a wide range of automotive platforms that require reverse light activation.
• Easy installation: The plug‑and‑play design eliminates the need for complex wiring harness modifications. Simply connect the two pins to the existing reverse light circuit and secure the unit in place.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Locate the existing reverse light circuit: Identify the wiring harness that powers the rear lights when the gear selector is in reverse.
2. Disconnect power: For safety, disconnect the vehicle’s battery or remove the relevant fuse before proceeding.
3. Remove the old switch (if applicable): Unscrew or unplug the previous component from the harness.
4. Connect the Vemo V95-73-0006: Align the two pins with the corresponding terminals on the harness. Ensure a snug fit to prevent loose connections.
5. Secure mounting: Use the provided bracket or screws to fasten the switch in place, keeping it away from moving parts and heat sources.
6. Re‑connect power: Restore battery connection or replace the fuse.
7. Test functionality: Shift the gear selector into reverse and verify that the rear lights illuminate correctly. Check for any flickering or delayed activation.

Maintenance Tips

• Periodically inspect the wiring connections for corrosion or wear, especially in environments with high humidity or road salt exposure.
• If the reverse light fails to activate, check the switch contacts for debris and clean gently with a contact cleaner.
• Replace the unit immediately if any signs of physical damage such as cracks or melted plastic are observed.

Compatibility Overview

The Vemo V95-73-0006 is engineered to fit seamlessly into a variety of vehicle models that utilize a standard reverse light circuit. Commonly referenced applications include:

• Mitsubishi vehicles with manual transmission gearboxes.
• Volvo models such as the V40 and S80 equipped with manual gear selectors.
