General Description

The backup lamps are incorporated into the tail lamps. The backup lamps operate with the ignition switch in the ON position. Placing either the manual selector lever on automatic transmission equipped vehicles or the gearshift control lever on manual transmission equipped vehicles in R (reverse) closes the backup lamps circuit. When the backup lamps circuit is closed, the backup lamps turn on. On manual transmission equipped vehicles, the backup lamp switch turns on the backup lamps. On 3-speed automatic transmission equipped vehicles, the park/neutral position (PNP) turns on the backup lamps. On 4-speed automatic transmission equipped vehicles, the transmission range switch turns on the backup lamps.
