Trans internal issue or electrical switches bad many times over??

[turboglenn]

Since doing my AWD swap i've noticed my reverse lights don't work.. I've shorted the pins with a wire and they come right on but when i put the car in reverse nothing happens.. I've done everything i can think of short of pulling the trans apart.. 2 new (used) reverse sensors) wire checks, fuses etc..etc..

is there something in the trans that may be able to be lost that wold cyuse the reverse switctch not tofunction or am i just getting a run of bad ssensors/switches?

Have you tried to remove the switch from the trans and pushing it in while its plugged into the harness to see if the lights come on? do you have a washer under it? the washer could be too thick?

I have no one to watch theback while i test the switch by hand i've tred with and without the washer as well..no luck, but ike i said, using a wire on the 2 pins givesmegreat reverse lights every time

Couldit be that i'm using 95 cables in a 97 car (but the trans is also a 95 too)

I'mstumped, I get no continuity from any of the switches when ohming them out either
