Reverse light switch?

Post by 67Custom »

I've got a 3 speed on the tree and the reverse light switch seems to be bad. I've been looking for a replacement online with no luck. Does anyone know a place to find one or an old part number for reference at least?
Any help would be appreciated, I tried to do some searches on the forum first but maybe I missed a previous post about this.

I have the stock 3 speed that I just pulled out of my 68 D100, I will look and see if it is the same switch as the A833 that I have.
I looked at napa and rockauto but didn't see anything there. napa didn't even have anything listed for the A833 just the automatic.

Have you pulled the plug from the trans. and completed the circuit to make sure it's not in the lights or wiring? Not much to go wrong on that style switch. :thinking

Chris,
The switch you posted looks close, same style connector. I did pull the plug and jumpered across and the lights work, also put a meter on the switch and had my dad move the shifter from neutral to reverse and there was no change in continuity.
Only other thing I haven't done is pull the switch out of the trans and bench test it.

Thanks for checking exline, let me know if its the same. I'f so the switch Chris found on eBay should work.

Just remembered I have an extra a745 3spd I got from Hellbelly a few yrs back. never used it. If you have not resolved this issue, you can have the switch off this trans. Don't plan on using. Chris. :Thumbsup
