Chris:
I don't have any ideas for you, but would be interested in any responses
you get. My reverse lights on my 1971 also don't work. I will get the
multimeter out this weekend to see if the power is getting to the bulb
sockets in the rear. My understanding is if there is no power, then the
switch on the tranny is likely bad.
One more question. I need a new tranny cover. Would it be wise to do
these two things at the same time?
