Yes, it just needs adjusting or is dirty.
Locate it on the passengers side of the trans, shaped like a fan, loosen the 12mm bolt at the top and rotate it until it starts in park-and the back up lights come on in reverse ( engine off, wheels blocked ). If it is intermittent remove it and clean the inside and replace di-electric grease inside..
