Hi everyone, I've got a 1995 gmc sonoma, the 4cyl 2.2l engine 2wd 5spd
manual trans.

I'm trying to find the switch on the transmission for the back-up
lights as recently they've stopped working. I've checked the fuses, and
the bulbs etc. I'm guessing that when I last changed the clutch there
was some damage to either the switch or wiring that has now caused a
short.

Any ideas? Please feel free to get back to me directly


Where can I find the switch on the transmission, will I have to drop
the transmission to access it?

thanks for the replies, i've actually found what i was looking for
after talking to a mechanic friend, just needed to get the truck up on
the jackstands to be able to get under far-enough to see the switch on
the side of the tranny, jumpered a wire between the two wires to
confirm that it was indeed the switch that is dead (a 10-15$ part) easy
fix thanks for replies

Have a look at The Brake switch...It well be on your Foot Brake
have a look at the brake pedal..There is a switch near the top of the arm and it works
with a pin arm that rest against the pedal
it might of come loose with working on the clutch..some you can adjust maybe all or might have lost the power connection
I hope it helps you...I might be wrong...But its a start
good luck

Here's my guess - check the steering column. There (might) be a pin that
moves the switch when the gear selector is moved.
