#11125, "Reverse lights on crack..."




          

My reverse lights seem to have a mind of their own. Now that they have free will, they seem to be on crack. Sometimes, when I am driving along, they flash on and off, or stay on. This is very bothersome to me. Any suggestions?

i don't know that it'd be a short, since power has to go through a relay before hitting the lights. don't hold me to that, though. check for shorts, or a bad relay.

Well, there is a pickup switch on the transmission that tells the lights to go on. Well, it is either in the transmission or in the shifter assembly (A/T). I am looking around in the service manual on my desk right now. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem, and if they have solved it.
TIA, guys,

Well, sometimes they flash their lights at me. If I have a friend following me, they usually call. Then again, there were those cars that did drive off of the road. j/p

A friend of mine found out that the grounding to each light bilb is really poorly done. It is really loose so it will deattach from the light itself, i dunno if this is what is causing your problem, but i do know that it causes your brake lights to turn off at will and turn back on whenever.

Excellent! A helpful answer! :-P Time to go check all of the grounds back there. Also, my license plate light mounting bracket rusted and crumbled. Friggin' car... :-D

Most definetly relay related..... If the grounds were bad, it WOULD go on and off, but, only when the car is IN reverse.

That is a good point, but is the direction pickup in the shifter or in the tranny? Is it possible that it could be out of line?
