Re: Backup Light Switch: Can I use reverse without it?
Reverse lights are actually not required. According to SD and NC laws anyways. Only 3 rules apply if you have back-up lights:
(1) Can only be white
(2) Can only have max of 2 lights
(3) Can only operate while car is in reverse
That is why a busted taillight that shows white light is illegal. It could possibly be mistaken for a back-up light.
And you can still use the tranny without the switch (of course you will lose some fluid). But a switch that is installed too deep (ie not using a spacer/washer under it) will cause it to lock up in reverse and 5th. You could just remove it and replace it with one of those vent balls that you see on top of the T-case or tranny.
