1995 Back up light switch
I have a 1995 Ford F-150 with the mazda m5od tranny in it. My back up light lights won't work due to what appears to a missing push rod which pushes on the switch itself. The switch works as I already pulled it and tested it. Anyone know if there is a rod in the tranny that depresses the switch and who carries one? Thanks.

Fixed it. A long bolt + p-grinder = push rod to depress the back up light switch when in reverse!
