Part Identification
« on: February 18, 2020, 11:26:00 »
I have this part and I would like to confirm where it goes.  My recollection is that it goes on the transmission and connects to the cable reverse light switch, from the transmission.  If someone could confirm, and even provide an installed  photo, that would be excellent.

Thanks very much,
Harry

Thanks Peter.  I'll get under the car and do some fitment tonight.  I know the end of the reverse light cable has a loop on it so I will be curious how it is secured in place.  May be more questions later.  :)

Stumped - I need more.  Is there a photo of this piece installed?

Never mind - thanks.  I was able to find a diagram in one of the manuals that I have that shows where this goes exactly, I believe.  I haven't been able to get back under the car to confirm but I will this week.

Thanks just the same!
