[updated:LAST EDITED ON 14-Jun-02 AT 11:23 PM (EST)]It's probably the neutral start/back-up light switch on the transmission.

To test it,there is a grey connector up behind the engine and near the firewall with 4 wires in it.
Take a jumper wire from the + post on the battery and touch the Red/Black wire and see if the B/U lights come on.
