Location of reverse switch on transmission (1977 CJ7)

[Rdavison39]

My reverse lights aren't working and so i want to trace the wires to make sure they are working. Problem is when i crawl underneath the only wire (cable really) coming out of the Transmission is the speedometer cable. I don't see any trace of any other wiring. I haven't come at it from the top but i thought i would see some wire of some sort that connects to where the shifter goes into the Transmission .

Does anyone have a picture or can tell me the location of the wire. Maybe it fell off altogether - idk.

Thx
Ron

Do you know which Transmission ? On my T-176 , I just remove the tunnel cover where the shifters come up and there it is. I have had to clean mine a few times to get the reverse lights to work again.

Most likely on the right side. STILL would need to know what 'box' we are talking about.

The stock Transmission would likely be a AMC 150 . I have the type of slide on terminal shown above. They do get dirty and need to be cleaned every now and then. Not replaced, just cleaned.
