First of all, I have tried searching the forums and have found plenty of info why my backup lights do not work. Chances are its the switch as I originally thought. My problem is that I actually cant find the damm thing. I thought I fount it earlier today, but it turned out to be the switch for the 4WD light (turns out that is also broken). Can someone post a pic (not to close) on where it is supposed to be located? All the threads I have read say it is on the passenger side on the trans housing. I know what it's supposed to look like but I still cant find it. I must need thicker glasses, again........

I have an 89 Toyota 4cyl. 22RE Pickup, Manual Transmission (not sure of the actual designation of the trans), 4WD.

Thanks in advance.............

 

top portion of the transmission main body, more towards the back. on the passengers side.
next to the gear shifter (not the transfer case shifter).

 

W56 model transmission... specifically assigned for the 22RE.

 

I just replaced mine (R151F); it was a piece of cake. One of the easiest things I've ever done on my truck (& I've done EVERYTHING!)~

Look for the wire coming from the frame to the transmission. My guess is you're looking up by the bell housing....go back further if so.
