    Well over two years ago my reverse lights we're noticed that they were not working I thought it was a different wiring issue but since you did yours for very cheap I spent the $17 and got a new one and installed it today and now I have reverse lights that I'm so happy I want to back up everywhere haha thanks

      I was thinking of five part ones.. But figured that the crowds aren't ready for that yet.

    Thank you for posting this I’m trying to get a friends 94 grand Cherokee back on the road. Hers is an automatic. Hoping this will be similar🤞good job on responding to the commenters👍the comment section was very helpful here

      I'll be honest I've never worked on the automatic TJ's. It should be similar; but I know on most auto transmissions the Neutral Safety Switch (NSS) also handles the reverse lights. I believe Chrysler changed the designs of the NSS somewhere around 2003 (TJ ran until 2006) - so keep that in mind. There are some really good forums out there with guys and gals who've forgotten more than I'll ever know. I appreciate the kind words brother 🤘

    I see this is a standard transmission, my tj is an automatic and has intermittent back up lights. Would the solution the same?

    • @RandomAutomotive

      Yes Adam, the process should be similar! I’d also check for loose wiring! Happy thanksgiving and thanks for watching!

    Where on the transmission is the plug?

    • @RandomAutomotive
      @RandomAutomotive  4 роки тому

      Jeff, The plug is on the passenger side near the 4 wheel drive linkage.

    dose anyones recerse loghts stay on ? i’m having that problem and it’s not the fuse so i’m stuck

    • @RandomAutomotive

      Either the switch has failed pushed in, or short to ground.

    This is not for the 1998. I have three wire plug. And is in a different location that is difficult to get off and on.

    Unfortunately doesn't apply to 05/06 6 speed TJ's - different switch required

      Thanks for bringing this up.. This is true some 2005’s and most 2006’s have the NSG370 6 speed. Most 1997-2004 and a few 2005-2006 carries the AX-5, AX-15 or NV3550. The process works as in the video for those. Thanks for bringing this up!
