[Remy]

1. Reverse lights Doesn't come on. (Checked the switch fine installed new tails still no luck...)
2. Gauge won't light up. (Put new dimmer in still no lights ??....hmm...must be related to the fuse that keeps blowing...)
3. 7.5 panel keeps blowing dunno what the prob is... (They're must be a short somewhere...)

I haven't wired anything up these probs are the same ones I've had since I bought the car I'm getting frustrated now I'm not to good with elec problems thats why I'm stumped....any help/advice ??

reverse light switch on the tranny is out.

I tested the wires and it looks like they still work I also took out the switch (with that ball bearing thing at the bottom) it looked fine but how can you tell if its bad or not ?? or should I just find a replacement and see if thats the problem ?? sorry 6gc are ultra rare to find one at the junkyard here in mn...or if someone has the item number for it ??

Edit: wait will the reverse switch from a 5gen 5sfe work ?? or one from a camery cause they also had the 5sfe too right...hmm...
