Default Reverse lights

Hey! I am a new user in the forum and I have a Mazda CX-7 diesel 2010. Would anybody know where the reverse gear switch are going? I have long time searching the Internet for picture and wiring diagram but I have not found. Do cable go to the BCM module or what? And whether the reverse lights also come wires from the BCM module? Hopefully someone could help me.

Assuming its got a manual gearbox, power goes from the fuse box to the reverse light switch on the gearbox and down to the reverse lights.

Fuse F53 Meter 15amp ( Australian Spec )

I think it goes to a some module when the rear camera image appears to multi information display when you put the reverse gear on. The reverse gear switch does not appear to display. What would be the picture at which point the reverse gear switch is? I've watched and extracting parts from the front but I have not found.

Hello

Thanks for answering. Reverse light switch is ok, there is no fault in the car. I will install the front camera whose picture comes with a separate switch on the display. The picture is displayed when the second switch is coupled connected in parallel to the reverse light switch. Then i need to put the contact on the reversing lights when using the front camera. Reverse light switch maybe go to tcm module (not pcm) ? Tcm wiring diagram on manual gearbox?
Sorry if my writing in English is bad, I use it as a google translator.

TCM is transmission Control Module - Only on a Automatic transmission, nothing on a manual gearbox.
