Default reverse lock out

Hello everyone,
Does anyone have a picture of where the reverse lockout plugs in? I have a 99 vert with m6. My reverse hasnt worked since I purchased the car but it really hasnt been a issue since I havent been driving it due to me modding the SH#* out of it., but while I am doing my forged motor swap I would like to fix this issue and I would appreciate it if someone could send me a pic of where it is connected. Thanks in advance Jason

When I did the clutch swap I never saw it to disconnect it. Ripped the wires out. Fought the reverse for months then got fed up. Did some reading and thought it was the solenoid cause I KNOW I hooked everything up. Whoops that's what I get for thinking. I had to take the connector apart and solder the wires back in. I got reverse now.

Best advice I got was bear hug the tranny and the connector is on top.
