To keep it from getting confused I do the following..

I always put my foot on the brake, pull back both shifter paddles, makes sure it's in neutral, then while the foot is still on the brake, lift up gently and pull back so it goes into reverse. Remember that reverse in a CC is not a real reverse, the clutch never fully engages, it only bumps, so you get loads of wear in reverse. In your case, I would have the CHF fluid level checked in your CC, it could be getting a little low and causing you to loose some pressure. Also, it could just be the way you are shifting... Let us know what happens...

It will go into reverse without lifting up...

But do it correctly anyway.... Don't lift hard, just a gentle lift and you need to have the fluid level looked at.. According to Ferrari of Denver, every two years you should bring it in to test the fluid level and pressure of the pump

Fluid level, pressure, clutch wear or the sensor is what is most likely causing your light to come on.... You can add fluid yourself, but you will need to go to a Volvo dealer to get AGIP CHF. The Ferrari dealer won't sell it to me..
So when the car is running do you notice the tach surging while driving down the road at a steady speed? If that is the case, the clutch is starting to slip, otherwise it's one of the others.

Another owner here knows what the ATF type is that you can buy easily, it's the same stuff, just packaged differently. If you do a forum search, you can find his post under the key word CHF

Best thing to do is have it looked at before you get damage...

To the East Coast guys on this blog... Any of you know of a good place to go where he will get good service and not screwed????

Do a search on username nomorejags

There is a lengthy article on the CC pump, etc. I am happy to see your fellow east coast guys jumping in to help out... It does sound electrical from your further description....
