If the light doesn't light, you need to go backwards up the chain through the fuses and relays. If the light DOES light, the motor is shot.
This is a very good idea. I'll have to add it to my spiel. Something like it occurred to me, but I wasn't sure if the earlier models had the same wiring connections to the shift motor as mine.
We should get some of this in the tech folder or something. I'm getting tired of typing it.
