'93 fj80; no reverse lights (neither work), no lights on the instrument panel for the gear.
it seems as if all other lights inside and out work as expected.
i checked one of the reverse light bulbs and found no volts but i did find ohms at the plug (according to my skills with that meter with the needle and watnot)
i had two people check for any action at the reverse light while i was changing gears, no luck.
i moved on to the neutral safety switch (? pie shaped on ds of tranny). tried not to strip the screws, took it apart and it looks pretty clean. took one of those light testers and tried to get current from anywhere on the contacts inside the neutral safety switch and got nothing, tried this in different gears too just in case.
removed the dash piece from the shifters and looked around at the mechanism and wiring of the shifter ... was hoping to find the other end of the wiring harness which the neutral safety switch is on ...
have i missed something or done something incorrectly?
where am i going from here?
thanks
