[6pack] Electrical Question/Test....of sorts

[Robert McBride]

Seeing that it's Japanese I would think the switch on the trans is the ground
for the back up lights and the green one is one side and the green/brown is
the other side?????  Bob M

  OK... I'm trying to get the back up lights to work with the Toyota 5 speed.
  The tranny has 2 contacts, the TR6 has 2 leads (G & G/N). G is switched hot
  and G/N goes to back up lights. Connect it all up, put it in reverse, turn
  on the key and nada. Continuity test on switch is good. Voltage test on
  leads shows power. Decide to connect G & G/N together to see if lights come
  on. What comes on is the right side back up light and the right side brake
  light. Go back to hooking it to switch and nothing again. After way more
  time than I care to admit, I finally figured it out. Can you or am I the
  only dummy?
