Yeah, you can just fill in your sig, so that way you don't have to keep telling us what kind of truck you have.

For an auto trans, the switch is on the transmission, on the driver's side, I think its the one near the front of the trans. Look for the Brown/Light Green (input from fuse box) and Violet/Black (output to lights) wires, those are for the backup lights.

Did you check your fuse first?

Fuse would be a good place to start thanks for the information.

Had the same problem with my 98.5,replaced the nutral-safety switch on the tramsmission,solved my problem.This switch also controlls the backup lights.You can use a jumper on two of the three wires,green and brown I think.Turn the key on ,If it's the neutral-safety switch,lights should work.If you change the switch,be aware that it is below the fluid level.I lost about a quart .Also don't forget the metal washer. Good Luck!
