    reverse lights

     



    long story short. Ignition went on the monty. knocking out the reverse lights. replaced the neutral safety/ reverse light switch. Car will now start in any gear and still no reverse light. switch is on steering column near the base. tried doing it like dave suggested. still no go. did it like instructions in box of switch. no go. any ideas how to fix?

    yes they look fine. even changed the one for the reverse light. I still believe that it is in the switch as i can start the car in any gear. just do not know what i did wrong installing it and how to fix it.
