I have a 99 mn6, I need a pic of the part that you need to change to get the lights back on when in reverse. They work with the alarm.
Thanks

Common Problem: You need to replace the reverse sensor on the side of the trans. The sensor comes direct from a Chevy parts counter. Jack the rear up, the sensor is on the side of the trans, install new sensor. Takes about 5-8 minutes to replace it at the most.

mine are not working either!
I replaced my switch a few years ago and it looks like I'll be doing it again!

The reverse switch is on the passenger side of the tranny.

Mine went bad before in another car, very easy to change. Right on the outside of the tranny and it is a cheap AM part.
