Is there a way to test the switch out of the car I purchased one from ebay said it tested good but not working I can jump over the plug and the reverse lights come on thanks
It only closes the circuit at a certain position. Spray some contact cleaner that is safe for plastics to clean the contacts. My personal favorite is DeOxIt.
OMG.....I need a PIN. Holy crap, we need a dude to make some of these suckers.......what a goofy design.
If somebody has a good original pin, I would be willing to create a CAD model for 3D printing. It could also be machined out of nylon. There are several places online that will print or machine one for you. I could print them on my FDM, but I think STL would be more robust. That is assuming there are enough folks wanting plastic. I'm happy with my SS carb stud. Easy to install, and fairly certain it would pop out easy enough in an accident if the column collapsed.
Can you send me your pics of the stud -nut fix of the column shift trip pin fix on the back up light switch,
