Reverse sensors, commonly used in vehicles, operate using ultrasonic technology. When the vehicle is in reverse, these sensors emit sound waves that bounce off nearby objects. The system measures the time it takes for the sound waves to return, calculating the distance to obstacles. If an object is detected within a certain range, the sensors alert the driver through audible beeps or visual indicators, helping to prevent collisions.
check the wiring to the sensor switch on top of the gear box one is for the overdrive and one is reverse but check all fuses first.
switch sensor located next to the transmission
Flasher fuse bad
The backup lights on a 67 Camaro won't work if the bulbs have burned out of the shifter is misaligned. The lights come on automatically when put in reverse and will not function properly unless the shifter triggers the reverse sensor.

Generally, the auto reverse on a cassette is triggered by a sensor located inside the deck. This sensor is a little wheel that is turned by the tape going over it. When the tape stops turning the little wheel, this triggers the auto reverse function. Unfortunately, to stop the auto reverse you'd have to take the deck apart and unhook the sensor. Sorry
I just ran into this problem. The range sensor is what is responsible for only allowing your car to start when in park or neutral. also, it is responsible for killing all power to accessories while starting your car. If any of the following symptoms persist, replace the range sensor: 1. Power stearing will become stiff in reverse or drive 2. radio mutes while in reverse or drive 3. power windows or locks do not operate while in reverse or drive 4. windshield wipers dont work while in reverse or drive 5. blower moter does not work while in reverse or drive 6. clicking sound under the dash while in reverse or drive The result of any or all of these problems are contributed to a renge sensor that has become internally shorted. there is a temperary work arround for this problem but you will still need to replace the sensor to correct the problem. Temperary fix: under the dash in the fuse pannel, pull the radio mute fuse located to the right and second to the bottom. This is only a temporary fix and the sensor will still need to be replaced. I do not know what could happen if the shorted range sensor is not replaced, it could cause all sorts of electrical problems, who knows.
There are many places where one can purchase a reverse sensor. This includes most auto car specialists, large electronics stores or online on sites such as eBay.
Remove the vacuum hose from the sensor. Remove the sensor retaining screws. The sensor will come off. Reverse the process to install the new sensor.
The reverse light sensor switch on the gearbox needs replacing. The switch is normally located on top of the gearbox & around the middle of underneath the air intake box.
Remove the wiring harness from your speed sensor. Remove the speed sensor retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new speed sensor.
Remove the vacuum hose from the oxygen sensor. Remove the oxygen sensor retaining screws. Reverse the process to install the new oxygen sensor.
