The switch is on top of the transmission. (2) prong plug. Sorry, no way to send a photo. There will be a (2) lead harness with a sheathed plug somewhere in the harness near the firewall which should plug right in. It's pretty easy as the plug fits nowhere else.

The top passenger side towards the back I think.

Driver's side toward the front near the top. Two wire plug with boot going in.
Never use a pipe plug in place of a backup light switch or you won't be able to go into reverse. I learned this the hard way.

Re: reverse light switch location on sm465

Thanks everyone for the replies, I will look in the morning. The reason I ask is my reverse lights don't even have a wire running to the rear so I am trying to get them hooked up. I will try to get a picture too if I find it in the morning.

Re: reverse light switch location on sm465

Bringing back this thread since I am presently troubleshooting my reverse lights. I believe my reverse switch on my SM465 trans is bad/intermittent.

Does anyone have a part number for the replacement switch? I see that LMC carries them, but I'm sure it is available at a lower cost through a regular auto parts place.
