G58 to W56c swap wiring help

I just swapped out my G58 tranny and chain driven transfer case for a W56c transmission and gear driven transfer case. The connectors for the reverse lights and 4wd indicator switches are different, and I need a little help figuring out what is the right way to get them working. I see that the switch on the gear driven transfer case is smaller and only has one wire as opposed to the larger two wire switch on the chain driven case.

Can anyone help me out with suggestions?

Looks like the reverse switch actually swapped over, but the 4wd indicator does not. Does the switch act as the ground for the indicator when pushed? Versus the original one that opens the 12 volt circuit instead.

Pretty hard to know just what year Vehicles you might have

If it has just one wire most likely it grounds when the switch closes completing the circuit .

Oops, sorry that I didn't post that. I'm working on a 1990 4runner with a 4 cylinder and ADD, the G58 is original and the transfer case came from a 1986 4 cylinder 4runner.

Thanks for the help!
