Need some help with reverse lights., And some other electronics Options

[mark_426]

Well, I got the car in (DMC's).

I found some minor things wrong, but the one I haven't been able to fix is the reverse/back-up lights. The car can be going backwards, or just sitting in reverse, and no luck. The plug in the transmission is hooked up and plugged in correctly..

The bulbs seem fine. I haven't seen the reverse lights on at all - not even at all when I move the shifter around when in R.

However, when the ignition is on, the one wire is hot. When the igniton is off, the opposite wire is hot. Whenever we jumped the lead (off switch in tranny), nothing happened, ignition either on or off.

I checked fuses, they seem fine. I dont want to dish out $25 bucks without knowing if the neutral switch needs replaced or not.

I didnt seem to get a good continuity from front to rear, but it seemed that I did.

The other thing, around the corner, towards the front, looking from the bunker, from the thermometer sending unit is another plug. It has like ceramic on the inside that I can see through the break. I dont know if you guys can give me some input on what this is and does or not, but still, its worth a try.

Eh, also, does anyone have 3stge and 5sfe wiring diagrams, for my 96 GT? I want to see exactly where the wires are supposed to run.

I tried searching, but got letter errors and unhelpful posts.. so, if you all could better direct me, I'd really appreciate it.

I fixed my back up lights. I checked the switch in the tranny, and it switched fine. So, i started following leads back. I'm guessing a wire got smashed or switched somewhere during the engine swap, so i ran a new wire from the drivers door floor panel up to the switch directly, and money.

For the horn, my relay clicked, but no horn. Ran a new lead from relay to horn, and working fine.

As far as the ceramic broken plug, not a clue. Still looking for diagrams and such...
