1990 e4od backup light issue

Thought I'd get your guys ideas on my dilemma.
back in early September I had my e4od tranny rebuild and had a new solenoid pack and new netrual switch installed and had backup light. But lately the lights don't work even though I'm getting power on the red/orange wire and that one only. I replaced the neutral switch again and still have no lights.the pigtail is very clean on both sides of the connector. And the solenoid pack one is a new one too.

Any ideas? I have the neutral switch lined up like it's supposed to be. I even dropped it loose and moved the selector around with no luck.
