Instrument Panel Relay Block...

My reverse lights aren't working. The lights aren't getting voltage to them when in reverse and the fuse covering that system is good. The next step I want to take is to check the trailer reverse light relay (mine is equipped with trailer hookup). However I find this relay is in the I/P relay block. This isn't the one underneath the steering wheel either. The info I have says it's behind the center of the dash. Anyone ever get into this relay block? Where would I start? Just asking for tips.

The voltage for the reverse lights comes from the dtr on the transmission. You probably need to adjust or replace it. Here is a diagram: http://www.e-toolbox.com/ads/wiring/va112365.pdf

If the gearshift is sloppy there are a couple of bolts under the dash that you should check: http://www.google.com/search?q=slopp...l%3B1024%3B867
