JeepNewb Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Anyone know where the reverse light switch is located? I think this part has went out on my 89 simply because i had reverse lights when i first bought it and now i don't. I've already checked bulbs and fuses so i'm thinking this is prolly the only thing left to look at other than wiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 what engine/trans? also, there is a wire harness connector located just behind the rear drivers side tire. corrosion inside there can cause problems with rear lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepNewb Posted September 23, 2011 Author Share Posted September 23, 2011 4.0l Manual trans/2wd. And i've already checked the harness connector behind the tire with a test light.........no power at this connector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 reverse switch should be on the pass side of the trans. should have wires coming out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 reverse switch should be on the pass side of the trans. should have wires coming out of it. Yeah and new it ain't cheap either...........like about $60. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezzik Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I know you say you've already checked fuses, but did you check the transmission fuse, it should be slot #13, I lost reverse lights in my 88 when that fuse went. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya know i didn't think to look at the trans fuse for that problem. I will take a look this weekend. Hopefully that is what it is cause yea even rockauto.com is pretty pricey for that switch.
