[QUOTE="Kevin Palmer, post: 942075, member: 54263"] I got ya.. If the switch is easy to remove, remove it and have someone put the tranny into reverse and see if the pin does in fact move. In automatic Ford trannys there is a pin that slips into the switch. When you move the shift selector a rod in the tranny moves and hits this pin, then the pin itself is what actually activates the switch. I would think they do the same thing for manual trannys. If you can see the rod (or whatever) within the tranny move, then I bet all that is missing is the slip in pin. Super easy to install as all it does is slip into the hole of the switch (which you will see once you unthread the switch itself). [/QUOTE]
