Backup Lights

I just posted about my steering column and ignition issues with my 1987 f350 with a 6.9. I have another issue the trans has been replaced with a 5 speed manual, I believe the Z-5 transmission, correct me if I am wrong on that. The original tranny was a 4 speed. The backup lights do not work. There are two sets of wires coming off the tranny. Does anyone have the wiring diagrams for this? <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

Don't have a diagram, but one set should be a neutral safety switch and the other set your reverse lights.

Neutral safety is two blue/red wires. You may not find the neutral safety wires down there since they go to your clutch pedal if your model has this. The back-up switch wires are purple/orange and pink/black.
