Hi,
Check if the reverse light switch is OK and is not sticking operated

Hi Christos Karayiannis,
It sounds like you have a faulty or sticking switch for the reverse lights, most likely located in the gearbox. Look at @jayeff answer.
PS! Sorry about my brain conking out on me, and answering about brake lights…

Hi @geirandersen,
Brake light switches usually don't control the reversing lights.
This sounds more like a faulty (sticking) reversing switch connected to the gearbox
Cheers
@jayeff OMG!!! I have no idea what went on in my head… I was thinking of the reversing switch, looking for the reversing switch, but somehow my head “made the decision to barf”.
You are absolutely right; It’s 99 times out of 100 a sticking switch in the gearbox. (I’ll be editing my answer!)
No problems.
Wait till you get to my age. Then you do it so often it seems normal
Cheers
