rossman Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Have you check the switch on the gearbox? Check that is is connected and functioning correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators RTz Posted December 6, 2008 Administrators Share Posted December 6, 2008 Mark, If you're going to work on you car, you need tools, yes? One of the tools that should be in every toolbox is a book. The Haynes manual is really quite good for our cars. I've completely worn out one, and the second one is not far from retirement. Also, Please use descriptive subject titles to help the next guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark.deady Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 k thanks... i do have a manual... i used it and located the reverse lamp switch... i guess the guy that had the car before me disconnected it. for what reason i do not know. any way i hooked it back up and put her in reverse and they lit up... great... still confused on why he unhooked it and zip-tied it under the bat. glad it was an easy fix good luck to anyone with the same prob... defensively suggest to check the corrosion on the lamp sockets...
