Brake light wires?

[Denofearth]

I recently had my engine and tranny exchanged (TBI,350 /465)
I know where the wires for the brake lights go in the 465 (I think) on the drivers side front of tranny.
My Q is I can't see or find where the wires are suppose to come from. I think the guy got rid of the wires or ...I just don't know.
I tried to attach some picts of connections. (if it turns out)
Thanks

Brake lights and a tranny?


Huh??


If you are talking about the back up lights, there should be two individual leads on the passenger side of the frame rail where the harness runs from front to rear, in the same area as the trans and tcase originally were...make extensions, and plug them into the switch on the transmission cover.



If not, I really have no idea what you are talking about....there certianly would not be any brake light connections on the fender area...there would be two leads that connect to the brake master cylinder to signal when the brakes need adjustment...via flashing the parking brake indicator when you let off the brake pedal...but nothing that would have anything to do with the rear brake lights.


Good luck!

I am so sorry yes yes it is the reverse lights ( I have been having so many problems with this truck lately) they all seem to blend into one.
So it is on the passanger side...HHHnnnn
I will have to go look on that side!

under the body....by the frame rail....NOT in the engine bay.



Good luck!

My backup light wires on my 74 (3sp.) come out of the frame rail on the right side just below where the gas tank sits. Can you picture that? I don't know if it will be the same for you.
