Reverse Lights.....Wires from tranny missing!
84 Z 28, T 5 tranny.
Backup lights don't work.
Trouble shooting the problem I worked my way to the tranny. There are no wires coming off of the tranny for the switch.
The switch from the tranny has a two pin socket and is located near the front on the driver's side correct?
The wires are no where to be found. At this point in time I am sure I'll have to wire it myself.
That switch provides the ground correct? Before I hack into anything I want to make sure.
Thanks again.

It is not ground, 12V goes to the switch, and when in reverse, passes through to the bulbs.
The harness has a dark green and a dark blue wire. It breaks out from the main harness right behind the distributor.

BTW, my lights won't stay on either. They flash on and off like a bad connection. I'm going to replace the connector first, then the switch if it still happens.
