I'm having a problem with my reverse lights in my 94 auto gt. Brake and tail lights work fine, but the reverse lights only go if I push the gear selector forward and to the right while in R. I searched around on here and found a few threads suggesting the back up switch on the transmission. Is this switch the same on an automatic? Is there any sort of switch on the gear selector? Trying to get this car inspected this week!

The reverse light switch on the automatic is the "park/neutral position switch" and it is adjustable. It sounds like it's out of place or the wiring harness is loose. Easy fix!

Hi, sorry to bring this thread back, but where did you unplug and replug the harness? Sorry if it's obvious!

The neutral switch (https://contentinfo.autozone.com/znetcs/product-info/en/US/wl2/JA448/image/2/) is in front of the engine.

If you also have a lag when dropping from D gear to 2nd you will need to remove the neutral switch and clean the dry grease and add fresh one. You can find a youtube video on how to do it (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XCvwj8u602I). If its just the lights it either needs adjustment (needle on N.S.) or its a wire issue.

Hope you sort it out.
