Reverse Lamp Switch for 12 HP Tourer

[P4.1958]

Where can I find the ‘Reverse Lamp Switch’ on the 12 HP Tourer?

This switch is shown in the wiring diagram of the 12 HP, but it is not connected on my 1948 Tourer. I would like to retrofit it.

Regards
Thomas

The part no. appears to be 03612 for a P2, but what it looks like ? You could post the question on the RSR web site Contact Us -

Look up 'motor cycle stop light switch' on the web - a sliding contact pulled by a spring, with 2 contact points. Used one when I rebuilt the 1926 '9' a few years ago. I once had to get an MOT on a P2, and the man asked where was the second stop light - showed him the wiring diagram with only one brake light.

For info. in the UK vehicles first used prior to 1971 only require one stop light , extract from Gov. web site Vehicles first used before 1 January 1971 can be fitted with only one stop lamp. The lamp can be mounted centrally or towards the offside.

have a look at the Land Rover switch of the same period or later.
