Electrical gremlin help
recently acquired a '72 F100 (302 w/C4 tranny). The truck came pretty well sorted electrically (everything seems to work). I did notice though that my back up lights remain on in all gears.
Any suggestions on where to start first ?
Thanks !

I should note that I'm saying this based only on experience working with the switch on a T18, though I am assuming that the same basic type of switch is used on the autos; I am reasonably sure that the wiring is all the same otherwise.
Good luck!

I did a little more reading this morning and it looks like the backup switch is actually built into the neutral safety switch, which is attached to the steering column near the base (by the firewall). I don't have any experience working with those auto switches so I will leave that to someone more knowledgeable than me.
