I could use the same advice.  I don't care about the neutral safety switch but the back up lights would be nice to have.  Then I can through some blinding bulbs in there.  Thanks!!

What about the back up lights??   

[Marlin]

When you unplugged the netural saftey switch pigtails [above the starter], you need to jump the two biggest wires togeather. I think they are white?

To locate the backup light circut, begin by turning the key to the on position and using a test light, probe the plugs untill you locate the only hot wire. [i recall it being a smaller wire in a plug that only had three wires.] This will be the power for the backup light circut. Next, with the key off, i ran a wire from the battey positive terminal, carefully to the other wires untill the backup lights came on and then ran both wires to the back up light switch.   I am sorry i dont recall the wire colors.

The tail lights have nothing to do with the netural saftey switch. They did light up the auto shift indicator light. Do you have crossed wires in the cab?
