Most likely the switch that plugs into the gearbox!
Although actually not sure if the same applies on the F20 box?

This has happened to mine aswell.
Completely standard (mechanical wise) 1.2 8v LS.
One fuse in my fuse box blows instantly if you replace it

cable running to front of gearbox as you look into the engine bay, clips into a plastic switch housing

it'll still be attached if its knackered. Only way to find out is to buy a new one and put it in and it should work. About £10 from Vauxhall IIRC

the reverse light switch is just a spring action type switch. it can still go even if it is still attached...you can even get a non genuine switch from a local motofactors to fit it
