If you're nimble, you can do it just by feel without removing anything. Put it in 3rd gear to get the selector out of the way, feel under the battery for the cable to the switch and follow it to the switch so you know where it is. Disconnect it, get a 22mm socket on it and a short ratchet, and bobs your uncle.
@@DIYmechanicTV Thanks for the video to help locate it! When I went to go do it and saw the gap down the side of the battery, I thought I'd give it a shot without removing anything. I managed it, but I have to admit, my arms got pretty scratched up in the process :)
Hi Thanks for the comment. I don't think this switch cause issues any but reverse light. This connect to revirse light. and might connect to reverse camera. Thanks.

@@ojmbvids My pleasure. Please take care of your arm. 😌
Hi, does this switch cause issues for the OEM parking sensors, washer fluid pump and rear wiper motor?

@@DIYmechanicTV thanks!
Would cause an issue for the sensors if the light isn't working either
Is this the same engine as mazda 5 2012
Having this problem
I think different engine and gearbox but basically same system. so you can find a reverse switch on the gearbox near linkage.

Thanks but no thanks. : )
